Ediciones El Puente (The Bridge Publications) was a literary project for young writers in Cuba just after the 1959 revolution. Between 1961 and 1965 they published each other's work, introduced dozens of new voices - among them poet and translator Nancy Morejón, playwright Gerardo Fulleda León, playwright-activist Ana Maria Simo and folklorist Miguel Barnet - and held readings and performances. Nevertheless, El Puente is remembered primarily as one of the casualties of the wave of social repression in Cuba in the 1960s and 1970s. Accused, among other things, of fostering homosexuality, Black Power, publishing exiles, and consorting with foreigners,〔Ponte, Antonio José, (2006-12-26). "(Un puente de silencio" ). Asociación Encuentro de la Cultura Cubana. Havana. Retrieved on 2007-12-26.〕 some members were detained, and/or sent to the UMAP concentration camps. A few left the country. Cuban literary critics are beginning to address the group, and in 2005, the ''Gaceta de Cuba'' published a series of pieces on El Puente.〔(''La Gaceta de Cuba''. 2005, no. 4. ) UNEAC, La Habana.〕 Much of the group's work was republished and analyzed in the 2011 book ''Ediciones El Puente en la Habana de los años 60: Lecturas críticas y libros de poesía'', edited and introduced by Jesús J. Barquet.〔''Ediciones El Puente en La Habana de los años 60: lecturas críticas y libros de poesía'', ed. Jesús J. Barquet, Ediciones del Azar, Mexico, 2011.〕 ==Origins== El Puente was begun by José Mario Rodríguez, a young poet who perceived the post-revolution literary world in Havana as closed to new writers. "(de Revolución ) only covered people connected to the director Guillermo Caberera Infante, and they never reviewed books by young writers." He wanted to create a publishing project that would be open to everyone, "Especially young people, new people. We wanted to find new talents with quality works inside Cuban culture. That's the thing that interested us most."〔García Ramos, Reinaldo. (Fall-Winter 2002). "(Ese deseo permanente de libertad: Conversación con José Mario e Isel Rivero en Madrid, el 4 de octubre de 2002 )". La Habana Elegante. Dallas. Retrieved 2007-12-16. 〕 Gerardo Fulleda León remembered meeting José Mario in 1961 at a theater workshop that was also attended by playwright Eugenio Hernández Espinosa.
The books they shared included authors such as Borges, Lautréamont, Rimbaud, Cuban poet Emilio Ballagas, Nerval, Rilke, Tagore, Mayakovsky, Salvatore Quasimodo, Essenin, poet Vicente Huidobro, Proust, Seferis, Dylan Thomas, and Holderlin.〔 Within a short time they began publishing as a group. Ana María Simo became co-director of the project,〔Rodríguez, José Mario. (2002) "(La verídica historía de Ediciones El Puente, La Habana, 1961–1965 )", ''Revista Hispano Cubana'', Madrid, number 6, winter 2002.〕 largely focusing on the production end and editing fiction. Other core members included Gerardo Fulleda León, Nancy Morejón, Ana Justina, and Reinaldo García Ramos (Reinaldo Felipe), who later made up the board of directors. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ediciones El Puente」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
