Ver y vivir todo esto me lleva a refugiarme en las palabras de aquellos que por desgracia tambi\u00e9n sufrieron algo parecido.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Hay poetas, y poetas del pueblo. Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez fue de estos \u00faltimos. Nacido en Orihuela en 1910, era hijo de un tratante de ganado. Como muchos de los trabajadores de aquellos a\u00f1os, apenas pudo asistir a la escuela, pues ten\u00eda que ayudar en casa. Sin embargo, Miguel ten\u00eda gran talento, y aprovechaba los ratos en que cuidaba el ganado para leer poes\u00eda: Gabriel y Gal\u00e1n, Mir\u00f3, Zorrilla, Rub\u00e9n Dar\u00edo entre otros. El apoyo del joven estudiante Ram\u00f3n Sij\u00e9 fue fundamental para \u00e9l: orient\u00f3 sus lecturas y le ayud\u00f3 con sus versos. Es muy conocida la eleg\u00eda que escribi\u00f3 en su honor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">El estallido de la guerra civil fue muy importante para su poes\u00eda. En el bando republicano, us\u00f3 sus palabras como arma de denuncia, y testimonio de las atrocidades que observaba. Tras finalizar la guerra fue pasando de c\u00e1rcel a c\u00e1rcel hasta su temprana muerte. Falleci\u00f3 a los 31 a\u00f1os, dejando un gran legado de poes\u00eda, teatro y prosa, que a\u00fan hoy recordamos.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Vida y tragedia de Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BUVCMIYQW_s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">We are living very complicated moments just now in Spain. The world press is echoing the tensions and social problems, so you probably know what I\u00b4m talking about. Cuts, unemployment, loss of rights, insecurity, and hopelessness are what exist in the streets. To see and to live all that makes me to take refuge in the words of those that unfortunately suffered something similar too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There are poets, and poets for the people. Miguel Hernandez was one of them. Born in Orihuela in 1910, he was the son of a cattle trader. As many workers in those years, he could hardly go to school, because he had to help at home. Nevertheless, Miguel had great talent, and he used the time in which he was looking after the cattle to read poetry: Gabriel y Galan, Miro, Zorrilla, Rub\u00e9n Dar\u00edo among others. The support of the young student Ramon Sije was essential for him: he directed his readings, and helped him with his poetry. It is very well known the elegy that Miguel wrote in his honor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The outbreak of the civil war was very important for his poetry. In the Republican side, he used his words as weapon of denunciation, and testimony of the atrocities that he saw. After finishing the war, he went on from jail to jail up to his early death. He passed away at the age of 31, leaving a great legacy of poetry, theatre and prose, which we still remember.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Estamos viviendo momentos muy complicados ahora mismo en Espa\u00f1a.
