Alejandro Cabral, son of the late poet, attended the activity and read his father\u2019s profile.<\/P> In his presentation, Raful said that del Cabral undoubtedly is the Dominican Republic\u2019s most complete and highest level writer, and the one with the most poetic diversity.<\/P> He said that in his poetic work he caught words like they were birds; he was intense and vital in each of his poems, which became large given their quality and depth.<\/P> In addition, he stated that his poetry is significant and has a higher lyric voice; it polishes forms and addresses all demands of metaphysics, black poetry, and love.<\/P> As he stated, Manuel del Cabral belongs to the generation of independent poets of the 40s in the last century, with a fertile vocation that made poetry a cultural expression of Dominicans.<\/P> Poet Mateo Morrison also spoke and made a synthetic analysis of the literary work of the extinct Caribbean poet, stating that \u201cSangre Mayor\u201d addresses poetry with great thematic variety, establishing that he is a poet who is part of the metaphysical tradition.<\/P> Morrison stated that Cabral belongs with the great writers that are considered virtuosos and are notable for the diversity of their work that places them in post-modern poetry.<\/P> Both Morrison and Raful were the poets that read the eulogy upon the death of this giant of the Caribbean poetry.<\/P> The artistic side of the event showcased Yanela Hern\u00e1ndez and Xiomara Fortuna, who performed an excerpt of \u201cCompadre Mon\u201d, a creation of Manuel del Cabral. <\/P> Source: cultura.gob.do<\/STRONG><\/P> <\/P><\/TD><\/TR><\/TBODY><\/TABLE><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" XVII International Book Fair of Santo Domingo 2014 will be dedicated to poet Domingo Moreno JimenesSanto Domingo, 7 de febrero de 2014 The Minister of Culture, songwriter and performer Jos\u00e9 Antonio Rodr\u00edguez, announced that the XVII International Book Fair of Santo Domingo 2014, with Panama as the Guest of Honor, will be dedicated to writer … Continue reading “XVII International Book Fair of Santo Domingo 2014 will be dedicated to poet Domingo Moreno Jimenes”<\/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-6817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-noticias"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6817"}],"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=6817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6817\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dominicanaonline.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
