Abstract

This paper discusses the type of poetry that is called politically engaged(poesía compromisada) by Pablo Neruda as well as its relationship with socialist realism. Some of his most controversial poems from the cycle Las uvas y el viento will be focused with the goal of reflecting about its place on the Chilean poets works and its importance in a wider historic political context.
