| Pablo Neruda |
| Task 4, Part 1: Click on the picture of Pablo Neruda and listen to the audio clip from There's No Forgetting. How might this excerpt relate to what you have already learned about time and place in Latin American literature? How does it relate specifically to the writings of Isabel Allende, Alberto Rios, and Gabriel Garcia Marquez? Extract one image from the excerpt, and draw or paint a detailed and "magically real" representation in your Magic Journal. |
| Task 4, Part 2: Click on the icons above and listen to and read the poem entitled "Poetry" by Neruda. Then, listen to the Celebrity Poetry Readings (to the right) from the Il Postino soundtrack. Choose one of the poems, find a written version of it online, print a copy (to retain in your Magic Journal), and draw, paint, or sketch images which reflect passages from your selection. |
| Task 4, Part 3: Now it's time to write your own poem! Using what you have learned about Magical Realism (as a device), write your own poem about poetry. |
