Resumen

Gabriela Mistral stands out for the deeply human sense of her writings. According to Esther de Cáceres, her life and poems are characterized by charity (LIX). She took part in the suffering of mankind and tried to ease it through love. In many cases, her poetic voice is the mother, who represents commited love and connects to mythical goddesses (Grandón) and also connects with the path of Orpheus (Carrasco 1977). Gabriela Mistral reflects on the conflicts that modern society produces to the identity of human beings (Grandón 2005). In this research, we want to focus on how Gabriela Mistral delves with the modern crisis of love described by Erich Fromm to offer a sense that trascends suffering.
