Zenobia, Juan Ramón y el exilio

Abstract

Puerto Rico received the exiled Spanish poet Juan Ramón Jiménez and his wife, Zenobia Camprubí, with open arms. By reading the collected letters that the poet, a native of the Andalusian city of Moguer, held with renowned figures of the time, as well as Zenobia Camprubí‘s Diario, published by the University of Puerto Rico, Matilde Albert Robatto not only highlights the well-known relationship that the couple sustained with Puerto Rico, she also outlines the interesting profile of a woman that, before our very eyes, has ceased to be the wife of a Spanish Nobel laureate and has become an intellectual in her own right.
