Newspaper clippings collection

Collection featuring reviews of translations of Pablo Neruda’s writings

Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) was a Chilean poet and author who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. Neruda supported Salvador Allende when he ran for presidency in 1970. In 2012 the Luchterhand-Verlag (Munich) donated six ring-binders to the Ibero-American Institute (IAI) containing reviews (and accompanying materials on radio and TV programs) of the publishing house’s translations of Neruda’s works into German. The collection dates from 1968 to 2009.
