Amereida: archiwa wyjścia
Amereida: Archives of Departure

Summary/Abstract: An introduction to the question of Amereida and the so-called Valparaíso School discussed in this issue of “Konteksty”. The Polish researcher dealing with Amereida presents the specific features of selected texts: translations of the most significant archival texts (the poem Amereida, the travel-log of the 1965 expedition – travesía de Amereida, a description of the establishment of the Open City) as well as contemporary works originating within this tradition (Manuel Sanfuentes), together with interviews conducted with the continuators of the Amereida conception (François Fédier, Victoria Jolly Mujica, Javier Correa, Sebastian de Larraechea). Barbaruk demonstrates the way in which the history of this utopian poetic-archival current was “rewritten” by the present-day socio-political situation in Chile and Latin America.
