Abstract

This study analyzes the repercussions and treatment of the production of the Valencian poet, Vicent Andrés Estellés during exile. It takes as a starting oint different moments and texts both from the post-war period and the sixties and the beginning of the eighties –especially during 1956, a seminal year in the evolution of the author. On the one hand, I have carried out an analysis of intertextual relations with Carles Riba with regard to the referent “Súnion” and its appearance in the Llibre de meravelles. On the other, I have recuperated and made detail comments on the unpublished original version of the manuscript of «L’exiliat» from the end of 1956, in the book of poems Llibre d’exilis, which has been analyzed in great detail vis-à-vis its characteristic subject matter and poetic attitude. Finally, I have attempted to analyze the impact of these writings using the fictional strategies that appear in the works of the poet on the subject of exiled writers, entitled Cercles del Russafí and Exili d’Ovidi.

Abstract

A selection of sixteen poems written by exiled Valencian authors. Two Anti- Franco falles erected in the cities of Texcoco (Mexico) and Perpinyà (France) were the inspiration for two of them. The others are patriotic and nostalgic texts in which the poets express their longing for the land they love and their desire to return to it.
