«Cántico cósmico» is the poetic work of Ernesto Cardenal, published by Trotta in paperback (416 pages, in Spanish).
Cántico cósmico proposes a poetry that aims to encompass everything: a polyphonic lyric, open to myths and discourses marginalized by Western thought, and conceived as a rejection of any dogmatism. Ernesto Cardenal understands it as a totalizing synthesis that connects with the poetic ambition of Dante and Pound.
Third edition, published on March 1, 2013, in the collection La dicha de enmudecer.
Ernesto Cardenal Martínez was a Nicaraguan Catholic priest, revolutionary, poet, and politician. He was a liberation theologian and the founder of the primitivist art community in the Solentiname Islands, where he lived for more than ten years (1965–1977). A former member of the Nicaraguan Sandinistas, he was Nicaragua's minister of culture from 1979 to 1987. He was prohibited from administering the sacraments in 1984 by Pope John Paul II, but rehabilitated by Pope Francis in 2019.
