LADB Article Id: 55141 ISSN: 1060-4189 Bolivia Returns Remains of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara to Cuba by LADB Staff Category/Department: Bolivia Published: 1997-07-18 Just short of 30 years after his death, one of the world's most famous guerrillas was returned to his adopted homeland. On July 13, the remains of Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who fought in the Cuban Revolution alongside Cuban President Fidel Castro, were flown back to Cuba, where they were received by Castro and other government officials. The body was uncovered in Bolivia where Guevara had gone on an ill-fated mission to foster a revolution in 1967. Guevara was born in Argentina in 1928, where he later studied medicine. He joined forces with Castro to overthrow dictator Fulgencio Batista (1952-1958). After the victory of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, Guevara served as president of the national bank, then industry minister, but left to start a guerrilla campaign in Bolivia that he hoped would spread across Latin America. He and several companions were captured on Oct. 8, 1967, and killed by the Bolivian army the following day. For almost 30 years, the location of the graves was kept secret. For the past 18 months, forensic experts and archaeologists have been conducting an off-and-on search for Guevara's body near the town of Vallegrande, Bolivia, 770 km southeast of La Paz. The search was initiated in December 1995, after retired Gen. Mario Vargas Salinas said that Che was buried near the landing strip on the edge of the town (see NotiSur, 12/1/95). The body of the Bolivian guerrilla Jaime Arana was found in December 1995, and that of Cuban Carlos Coello Coello was identified in June 1996. The search for Guevara was called off by the Bolivian government in mid-1996. However, in late May of this year, efforts to find Guevara's body resumed, with the participation of Cuban, Argentine, and Bolivian experts. In early July, the remains of seven bodies were uncovered, and it quickly became evident that one of the bodies was likely the famous Argentine doctor turned revolutionary. The first major clue to the body's identity was its missing hands. Following Che's death in La Higuera, near Vallegrande, Antonio Arguedas, interior minister during the military government of Gen. Rene Barrientos (1966-1969), ordered Guevara's hands cut off to prove his death. The seven bodies found in Vallegrande were taken to the provincial capital of Santa Cruz de la Sierra for positive identification. Forensic tests commenced and, on July 12, experts confirmed that one of the bodies was that of Guevara. The other Cuban guerrillas whose remains were identified were Alberto Fernandez Montes de Oca, Rene Martinez Tamayo, and Orlando Pantoja Tamayo. Also identified were Bolivians Anicelo Reinaga and Simon Cuba, and Peruvian Juan Pablo Chang Navarro. Special honors prepared for Guevara The bodies of Che and the three other Cuban guerrillas were flown to San Antonio de los Banos air base about 35 km south of Havana on July 13, and received by Castro, other Cuban officials, and members of Guevara's family. The small, plain coffins were loaded onto military caissons as Cuban troops fired a 21-gun salute. ©2011 The University of New Mexico, Latin American & Iberian Institute All rights reserved. Page 1 of 2 LADB Article Id: 55141 ISSN: 1060-4189 Guevara's closest surviving family are his Cuban widow, Aleida March, and four children Aleida, Camilo, Celia, and Ernesto. Aleida Guevara, daughter of the revolutionary, read a statement to President Castro, relatives, and former colleagues of Guevara. "Today we receive their remains, but they do not arrive in defeat; they return converted into heroes, eternally young," her statement said. Guevara's remains will be reburied in a mausoleum in Santa Clara, the provincial capital where he led a December 1958 offensive that helped topple Batista. Cuban officials plan to hold the burial in October, on the 30th anniversary of Guevara's death. A major event is also being planned for October in Vallegrande, Bolivia, to commemorate the anniversary. Vallegrande authorities had fought to keep the remains of Guevara in their town of 5,000, declaring them "national patrimony." Officials later changed their minds, however, "for humanitarian and Christian" reasons. Many local residents have small altars set up honoring the revolutionary, and some insist that he is a saint. The town has become a tourist attraction for the curious and for admirers of Guevara. Bolivian army veterans, however, indignantly recalled their comrades killed by Guevara's forces and complain about all the media attention given the fallen guerrillas. "I'm angered by so much attention being paid to this tyrant who invaded this country," said former soldier Jorge Salazar. "I'm devastated to see how history has been distorted and the real men forgotten."

Abstract The problem facing the Cuban Revolution after 1959 was how to increase productive capacity and labour productivity, in conditions of underdevelopment and in transition to socialism, without relying on capitalist mechanisms that would undermine the formation of new consciousness and social relations integral to communism. Locating Guevara’s economic analysis at the heart of the research, the thesis examines policies and development strategies formulated to meet this challenge, thereby refuting the mainstream view that his emphasis on consciousness was idealist. Rather, it was intrinsic and instrumental to the economic philosophy and strategy for social change advocated.

    RESTLESS THE STORY OF EL ‘CHE’ GUEVARA by ALEX COX & TOD DAVIES first draft 19 jan 1993 © Davies & Cox 1993 2 VALLEGRANDE PROVINCE, BOLIVIA EXT EARLY MORNING 30 JULY 1967 In a deep canyon beside a fast-flowing river, about TWENTY MEN are camped. Bearded, skinny, strained. Most are asleep in attitudes of exhaustion. One, awake, stares in despair at the state of his boots. Pack animals are tethered nearby. MORO, Cuban, thickly bearded, clad in the ubiquitous fatigues, prepares coffee over a smoking fire. "CHE" GUEVARA, Revolutionary Commandant and leader of this expedition, hunches wheezing over his journal - a cherry- coloured, plastic-covered agenda. Unable to sleep, CHE waits for the coffee to relieve his ASTHMA. CHE is bearded, 39 years old. A LIGHT flickers on the far side of the ravine. MORO Shit. A light -- ANGLE ON RAUL A Bolivian, picking up his M-1 rifle. RAUL Who goes there? VOICE Trinidad Detachment -- GUNFIRE BREAKS OUT. RAUL is firing across the river at the light. Incoming bullets whine through the camp. EVERYONE is awake and in a panic. ANGLE ON POMBO CHE's deputy, a tall Black Cuban, helping the weakened CHE aboard a horse. CHE's asthma worsens as the bullets fly. CHE Chino! The supplies! 3 ANGLE ON CHINO Chinese-Peruvian, round-faced and bespectacled, rounding up the frightened mounts. OTHER MEN load the horses with supplies - lashing them insecurely in their haste. It's getting light. SOLDIERS of the Bolivian Army can be seen across the ravine, firing through the trees. POMBO leads CHE's horse away from the gunfire.

  • De Ernesto, El “Che” Guevara: Cuatro Miradas Biográficas Y Una Novela*
    Literatura y Lingüística N° 36 ISSN 0716 - 5811 / pp. 121 - 137 La(s) vida(s) de Ernesto, el “Che” Guevara: cuatro miradas biográficas y una novela* Gilda Waldman M.** Resumen La escritura biográfica, como género, alberga en su interior una gran diversidad de métodos, enfoques, miradas y modelos que comparten un rasgo central: se trata de textos interpre- tativos, pues ningún pasado individual se puede reconstruir fielmente. En este sentido, cabe referirse a algunas de las más importantes biografías existentes sobre el Che Guevara, como La vida en rojo, de Jorge G. Castañeda, (Alfaguara 1997); Che Ernesto Guevara. Una leyenda de nuestro siglo, de Pierre Kalfon (Plaza y Janés, 1997); Che Guevara. Una vida revo- lucionaria, de John Lee Anderson (Anagrama, 2006) y Ernesto Guevara, también conocido como el Che, de Paco Ignacio Taibo II (Planeta, 1996). Por otro lado, en la vida del Che, hay silencios oscuros que las biografías no cubren, salvo de manera muy superficial. Algunos de estos vacíos son retomados por la literatura, por ejemplo, a través de la novela de Abel Posse, Los Cuadernos de Praga. Palabras clave: Che Guevara, biografías, interpretación, literatura. Ernesto “Che” Guevara’s Lives. Four Biographies and one Novel Abstract The biographical writing, as a genre, shelters inside a wide diversity of methods, approaches, points of view and models that share a central trait: it is an interpretative text, since no individual past can be faithfully reconstructed. In this sense, it is worth referring to some of the most diverse and important biographies written about Che Guervara, (Jorge G. Castañeda: La vida en rojo, Alfaguara 1997; Pierre Kalfon: Che Ernesto Guevara.

  • Press Release Author A.C. Frieden Follows Che Guevara's Trail in Bolivia
    Press Release Author A.C. Frieden Follows Che Guevara’s Trail in Bolivia VALLEGRANDE, Bolivia (Nov. 22, 2007) -- Author A.C. Frieden traveled to Bolivia to research Che Guevara’s 1960s revolutionary movement in order to complete his upcoming novel Where Spies Go To Die. Arriving in Santa Cruz, Bolivia’s largest city and one of the transit points for Che Guevara and his rebels in 1966, Frieden visited many of the city’s key sites and interviewed a number of locals in preparation for his journey south. Above: Monument dedicated to Che Guevara located in the center of the tiny village of La Higuera, in south-central Bolivia, where the guerrilla leader was executed in 1967. After visiting Samaipata, he went on to Vallegrande to see various sites related to Che Guevara. In particular, Frieden visited the Señor de Malta hospital, where Che’s body was flown to after his execution in La Higuera. Frieden toured the airfield and nearby grounds where Che’s remains and those of his most loyal comrades were secretly buried in 1967. For several days Frieden ventured south from Vallegrande across rugged mountain roads to visit remote villages and trails connected to Che Guevara’s doomed rebellion. After visiting the town of Pucara, Frieden arrived in La Higuera and toured the schoolhouse where Che was executed by CIA-backed Bolivian troops shortly after his capture in the nearby canyon called Quebrada de Yuro. In La Higuera, Frieden interviewed a village elder who had witnessed Che’s arrival into the village 40 years earlier. Frieden returned to Samaipata, where he toured El Fuerte, an archeological site (designated a world heritage site by UNESCO) that was inhabited by three populations over several centuries: the Amazonian, Inca and Colonial civilizations.

    Las formas del duelo: memoria, utopía y visiones apocalípticas en las narrativas de la guerrilla mexicana (1979-2008) by José Feliciano Lara Aguilar B.J., Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2001 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Doctor of Philosophy in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Hispanic Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2016 © José Feliciano Lara Aguilar, 2016 Abstract This study analyzes six literary works of the Mexican contemporary guerrilla that covers the years 1979 to 2008: Al cielo por asalto (1979) by Agustín Ramos, ¿Por qué no dijiste todo? (1980) and La patria celestial (1992) by Salvador Castañeda, Morir de sed junto a la fuente. Sierra de Chihuahua 1968 (2001) by Minerva Armendáriz Ponce, Veinte de cobre (2004) by Fritz Glockner, and Vencer o morir (2008) by Leopoldo Ayala. In both their form and structure, these narratives address the notion of mourning, as well as its inherent categories, such as: work of mourning or grief work, melancholy, loss, grief, remnants, and specters, among others, which call into question and destabilize the generalized social discourse. In this tension, I observe the emergence of aesthetic languages that take place within the post-revolutionary imaginary of the 1960’s, and 1970’s with the exhaustion of revolutionary imaginary that was predominant in the preceding decades. These aesthetic languages provide mourning with new contents, organized in three fields: memory, utopia, and apocalyptic visions, which recreate mourning as a symbolic space where an important social struggle for the reconstruction of the past is still ongoing.
