Summary
Maria Zambrano: Delirium and Destiny Twenty Years of a Spanish Woman
Delirium and Destiny was written by Maria Zambrano in Havana in 1952. This original narrative-philosophical work is a valuable testimony about the Spanish tragedy in the atmosphere of the great cultural, social and political crisis that hit Europe at the end of the 20s of the last century and after the Second World War. The text deals with the turbulent changes that Zambranova experienced between 1928 and the end of 1948, and special attention is paid to the period of the end of the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera and the establishment of the Second Spanish Republic. Zambranova's tragic philosophy thematizes the social and political schism that the author, exiled from Spain, experienced deeply and directly during her first exile.
