Abstract

The travelling spectrum of Poema de Chile reflects on the adoption of the name Mistral. The causes of this choice go from coming back to a previous intimacy -the original scene of the country-to the rejection of the urban society. The name she gives herself is a conscious act and therefore , a modern one, which is used as a response to the damage she received when she was in a previous situation. As a result, the ghost calls for the places, the language and the goods that were stolen, and she demands to recover the bodies that were torn by the white and ethnocentric discourse.
