In 2010, it was declared the American Capital of Culture, and in 1990, UNESCO declared it a World Heritage Site,\u201d Belliard said. <\/P><br \/>\n<P>He argued that \u201cthe city has been immortalized in verse and narrative passages by poets and storytellers such as Salom\u00e9 Ure\u00f1a, Jos\u00e9 Joaqu\u00edn P\u00e9rez, Gast\u00f3n Fernando Deligne, Vigil D\u00edaz, V\u00edctor Garrido, Lupo Hern\u00e1ndez Rueda, Abelardo Vicioso, Pedro Mir, M\u00e1ximo Avil\u00e9s Blonda, Miguel Alfonseca, Norberto James, Juan Carlos Mieses, Francisco Moscoso Puello, Carlos Federico P\u00e9rez, Manuel Salvador Gautier, Roberto Marcalle Abreu, Manuel Garc\u00eda Cartagena, Ren\u00e9 del Risco, Luis Alfredo Torres, Juan S\u00e1nchez Lamouth, Rafael Anez Berg\u00e9s, Enriquillo S\u00e1nchez, and Pedro Peix. <\/P><br \/>\n<P>Others that did the same were: Marcio Veloz Maggiolo, Tulio Manuel Cestero, Joaqu\u00edn Balaguer, Andr\u00e9s L. Mateo, Efraim Castillo, Pedro Verges, Manuel Rueda, Jos\u00e9 M\u00e1rmol, V\u00edctor Villegas, Enrique Aguiar, Lopez-Penha, Guillermo Pi\u00f1a, Sanz Lajara, Ram\u00f3n Lacay Polanco, Manuel Amiama, Soledad \u00c1lvarez, Alexis G\u00f3mez Rosa, Tony Raful, Amable L\u00f3pez Mel\u00e9ndez, Edgar Hern\u00e1ndez Mej\u00eda, and Enrique Eusebio,\u201d among others. <\/P><br \/>\n<P>Mr. Belliard, who is also a writer, said that various authors have built and rebuilt a symbolic and imaginary representation from theirs novelistic or poetic worlds about the city of Santo Domingo. They have narrated or turned into poetry the urban architecture as the protagonist and a character of their literary recreations. Many novels, stories and poems of our literature make up the memory of the city, where the architectural and literary language merge, and where there is an imaginary mapping of verbal creation of our writers, forming a literary body of identity symbols of the monumental heritage of the architectural space of our city.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"WIDTH: 500px; FLOAT: left; MARGIN-LEFT: 20px\"><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 style=\"FLOAT: left\" border=0 alt=\"A discussion will take place on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: the City of the Ozama in the Dominican Literature\u201d\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/5260_1.jpg\" width=500> <\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"WIDTH: 500px; FLOAT: left; MARGIN-LEFT: 20px\"><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 style=\"FLOAT: left\" border=0 alt=\"A discussion will take place on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: the City of the Ozama in the Dominican Literature\u201d\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/5260_2.jpg\" width=500> <\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"WIDTH: 500px; FLOAT: left; MARGIN-LEFT: 20px\"><IMG class=thinborderfloat1 style=\"FLOAT: left\" border=0 alt=\"A discussion will take place on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: the City of the Ozama in the Dominican Literature\u201d\" src=\"\/portal\/noticias\/5260_3.jpg\" width=500> <\/P><\/TD><\/TR><\/TBODY><\/TABLE><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A discussion will take place on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: the City of the Ozama in the Dominican Literature\u201dSanto Domingo, December 4, 2013 The Directorate of Literary Management of the Ministry of Culture and the Erwin Walter Palm Foundation will hold a symposium on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: The city of the Ozama in the Dominican literature,\u201d &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/noti5260\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;A discussion will take place on \u201cArchitecture and Literature: the City of the Ozama in the Dominican Literature\u201d&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-noticias"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6747"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6747\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
