VASQUEZ, Carola Gabriela Sepúlveda. Gabriela Mistral and her “counter-bomb”: educative messages for peace. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2023, vol.22, e166. Epub 07-Ago-2023. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v22-2023-166.
Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) was a Chilean teacher, writer and intellectual. She was counsuless for Chile in Brazil from 1940 to 1945. Marked by contexts of war and dictatorships, locally and externally, she a number of pedagogical messages which I interprete through the image of the counterbomb, a concept she creates to discuss a peace born out of the most intimate essences of being and which allows a reading of herself as an author writing from inside a trench. Through the use of images and metaphors and a resource to think reality in distinct ways, she made invitations for the creation of different readings of the world, and by using narratives, she counted livid reports and stories of experiences and lessons she taught of the difficult times in place. Through the analysis of some of her report, a genuine Mistralean genre, I attempt understand the pedagogical meaning of her work and analyze the lessons she gave her imagined community of fellow Americans, transmiting experiences in hope of bringing Spanish-speaking and Portuguese-speaking Americans closer to one another and, through writing, struggle for peace.
