Aves sin nido es la obra más destacada de Clorinda Matto, reconocida como la novela precursora del indigenismo, movimiento literario básicamente del Perú. Aves sin nido es una denuncia -con una visión filantrópica, sentimental y compasiva- de las precarias condiciones de los indígenas.En la primera parte de la novela el maltrato a la población indígena, la incompetencia de las autoridades y la corrupción de los curas, marcan el hilo narrativo de la historia.Y en la segunda parte de Aves sin nido, la fuerza de lo novelesco, con tintes melodramáticos y folletinescos, se impone, pero sin abandonar la reivindicación social y la queja que subyacen en toda la novela.Si la historia es el espejo donde las generaciones por venir han de contemplar la imagen de las generaciones que fueron, la novela tiene que ser la fotografía que estereotipe los vicios y las virtudes de un pueblo, con la consiguiente moraleja correctiva para aquellos y el homenaje de admiración para estas.Proemio de Aves sin nido
An English translation of the first major Spanish American novel to protest the plight of native peoples.
Clorinda Matto de Turner's classic novel in a new, annotated edition.First published in 1889, Aves sin nido drew fiery protests for its unsparing expose of small town officials, judicial authorities, and priests who oppressed the native peoples of Peru. Matto de Turner was excommunicated by the Catholic Church, burned in effigy, and forced to emigrate to Argentina.In 1904, the novel was published in an English translation as with a modified ending. Successive English editions restored the original ending and translator's omissions.This edition follows the original version in Spanish, but comprises no less than 332 notes, adding more than 270 to the author's own 58 lexicographic annotations on Quecha and Spanish unusual terms, so necessary to grasp the real power of her prose.This annotated edition constitutes an important reading for all students of the indigenous cultures of South America.
A young couple arrive in a Peruvian province where the Indians are exploited by landowners and public officials and the women are especially abused by local priests. The idealistic couple attempt the difficult task of improving the lives of the Indians.
