As a congressman, senator and presidential candidate who was also the island’s most popular radio commentator, Chibás was afforded an excellent opportunity to alter government policy and shape public opinion.

  • Holguín Province
    © Lonely Planet Publications 359 Holguín Province With native sons as polar opposite as Fidel Castro and Fulgencio Batista, it’s no surprise that Holguín is a region of extremes, and if you delve a little deeper you’ll find a few more. There’s the pine-scented purity of the Sierra del Cristal versus the environmental degradation of the HOLGUÍN PROVINCE Moa nickel mines; the tranquility of Cayo Saetía versus the bustle of the provincial capital; or the inherent Cuban-ness of Gibara versus the tourist swank of Guardalavaca. Outside its dazzling north coast resorts, few non-Cubans know much about this hard- working but hard-to-fathom province. It’s a sad, if excusable, oversight. Native Holguiñeros have been ruling over Cuba since 1934 (Batista-Castro-Castro). Not bad for a province that only registered its first city in 1752 and, until the late 1950s, was a virtual fiefdom of the American-owned United Fruit Company. Holguín’s beauty was first spotted by Christopher Columbus who, by most historical accounts, docked here in October 1492, describing the region’s broccoli-green forests and shapely coastal hills as the ‘most beautiful land he had ever laid eyes on.’ Timeless and benevolent in their mystery, the hills are still here, though the forests were cleared long ago by United Fruit and other sugar-hungry plantation owners. In more recent times sprawling resorts have sprung up along the coast forming three distinct enclaves – Guardalavaca, Esmeralda and the superposh Playa Pesquero. Further south the hills become craggier before giving way to the purple-hued Sierra del Cristal, a fresh-scented alpine-flavored wilderness where an adventure-seeking Castro roamed as a child.

Castillo del Morro # 114 Lomas Reforma 11930 México, D. F. FAX 55-96-24-26 E-mail: ivanfah @ prodigy.net.mx MÉXICO ANTOLOGÍA DE LA DÉCIMA CÓSMICA DE HOLGUÍN CUBA por RONEL GONZÁLEZ FRENTE DE AFIRMACIÓN HISPANISTA, A.C. MÉxico, 2003 Al gran amigo Joaquín Osorio Carralero quien me pidió que Holguín no se quedara sin una antología como ésta. INTRODUCCIÓN Si bien la intelectual española María Zambrano descubrió en el siglo XX una Cuba secreta, donde la poesía constituía una especie de apeiron presocrático, como aquella sustancia de la que provenían -según los griegos- todas las cosas, tenemos en Holguín, ciudadela embrujada, una historia escrita en décimas por juglares de la improvisación, siempre subvalorada, y poetas de la palabra escrita, que hoy se insertan en la vanguardia del arte -ya bastante antiguo- de frecuentar la supuesta creación de don Vicente Espinel, en su variante espinela, prodigio de la expresión poética que ya anda por las tres centurias de sueños calderonianos y cubanísimos sinsontes, que cantan en las ramas del árbol bienaventurado de la décima. Esta región nororiental de la ínsula, sorprendida por españolas carabelas en 1492, acogió asentamientos peninsulares y, particular- mente, canarios y supo de internas migraciones que facilitaron la expansión de la estrofa de los diez versos; pero no fue hasta el siglo XIX que no tuvimos evidencias escritas. La tempranamente marchita Adelaida del Mármol concibió, en la cercanía geográfica y filial de Luisa Pérez de Zambrana, algunas décimas tituladas El jazmín de mi ventana que es el primer documento literario escrito en décimas por un autor holguinero que se ha podido conservar.
