Gabriela Mistral; (1889–1957) was the pseudonym of Lucila Godoy Alcayaga, a Chilean poet, educator, diplomat, and feminist who was the first Latin American (and, so far, the only Latin American woman) to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, in 1945. Some central themes in her poems are nature, betrayal, love, a mother's love, sorrow and recovery, travel, and Latin American identity as formed from a mixture of Native American and European influences. Her portrait also appears on the 5,000 Chilean peso bank note.
This blog is for the sole purpose of listing the books, journals and archive in Dr. Thomas G. Mathews' (my late father's) vast library for specialists on Caribbean and Latin American History. FACT EX-ANTE: No book will be taken from its location. Those desiring of consultation will email me to make the appropriate arrangements.
