Puerto Rican authors abroad (19th and 20th centuries)

These conferences focus on revisiting a selection of literary works by Puerto Ricans who moved abroad for various reasons: studies, political commitment, better opportunities for artistic development, among others.

We review part of the work of these writers, temporarily based in New York (Juan Antonio Corretjer and Manuel Ramos Otero), in Spain (Alejandro Tapia y Rivera, José de Diego and Emilio R. Delgado) and Chile (Eugenio María de Hostos), in order to delve into the circumstantial repercussions that favored them and the significance of their aesthetic proposals beyond the shores of their homeland, Puerto Rico.
