JOSe NGEL VALENTE (OURENSE, 1929-Geneva, 2000 not claimed more privilege than the die so that the air was freer in the heights and the most free men.) Jose angel Valente. THE voice of a LONE poet said Valente – not written in principle for anyone, and actually writes to an overwhelming majority, which is the first to be part. Because who first communicates such knowledge is the poet, in the Act of creation itself. Valens is one of the strongest voices of Spanish poetry of the second half of the fifties, he claimed his work as a solo runner race. And from his loneliness she faced life, away from literary chapels. In a radically solitary work adjusted his voice to other solitary specimens such as san Juan de la Cruz, Antonio Machado, and Juan Ramon Jimenez. Valens was always aware that the adventure of the poet is that of the solo.

True solidarity is possible only between solitary, let us put another great solo. Slowly, but surely, with a not always more abundant lyrical flow, he imposed a peculiar way of making poetry. Outside of pure poetry and without falling into the stereotypical anguish of other poets of his testimonial context, sometimes supportive, accusing with sensitive registry the controversial sign of our time. Has been able to get it? Simply through the expressive concentration of language. While some poets wrote Jose Luis Cano – they come by the accumulation of expressive resources, Valente does it for elimination, the bone of the poem with the skin covering the word-just and necessary. All are characterized by a more intellectual than emotional, by temperament and willingness to poet. Says things that are imposed with attributes of clarity, and hence that their concerns reflected the reality in an own poem time of misery – to isolate it and abstracting of passengers sentimentality. With a language precise, rhythmic and beautiful, his poetic, near work in their early to the characteristic of the generation of 50 social realism, evolved toward a deep intellectual lyricism and consideration of poetry as a work of search and knowledge of the essence of human experience, gaining particular relevance the influence of mysticism and reflection on the poetic Word.

Under the light of Conclio and guided by the Spirit, in times of deep atribulaes, the faith catholic searched answers to these difficulties, of where expressions, people and documents had appeared that had allowed seno to give handle to as many questions, the least to reencontrar the hlito of the Creator to blow in its seio. is in this spirit that, also, is born the document that loans to the name to the heading of this work and on which the reflections to follow will have place. 2? Reflection On the text the contextualizao above placed already brings the elements gifts in the two first parts of the text and, also, some of the more important estimated ones by which the same it takes starting point. In this direction, the document renews the commitment of Church of Brazil with the evangelizadora action that guides the Church, revealed from Conclio, presenting, in a similar way, great concern with the local evangelizao, in all the places. Of any form, it does not have as to deny the deep brought notes, fruit of a deep philosophical inquiry, politics, economic and social, to the light of the evanglica Truth and the tradition of the Church. E, without a doubt, does not have bigger concern in the current society that the corrosion and apodrecimento each bigger time of felt e, with this, unhappyly, a corrosion of the proper humanity.

In this spirit, as much and as many authors dive in this inquiry, searching to find a light it, a handle, a wire, that is, of the most shy hope. In it, great conclusions if present as valuable ' ' Moral in Desordem' ' of the priest Paul Valadier. Not valley, however, to return here from deep way to other authors, a time that the interest of this work if comes back to the text of the CNBB however worked.

Before the proximity of these magical Christmas celebrations I have put myself to think how and because it is born the tree Christmas and its meaning. There are theories on when and where this tradition can have begun, but what but I like of this tree it is its meaning. One says that the pine chose itself because he is perennial then thus is the love of God. One also says that the first Christian Christmas tree was adorned with apples that represent the original sin and candles that represent the light of God. The apples were changed by balls and mean the gifts that God gives to the men.

The candles were replaced by multicoloured lights with the coming of the electricity but its meaning is the same. The bows are identified with the union of the families and because not of the friendships. But most important of all this, it is that around the tree the family and in some intimate friendly cases meets to celebrate the birth of the God boy, although also says that it was not born in this date. If we put ourselves to enumerate whichever things they say without being confirmed us we would astonish of the number that we would obtain. It does not matter if the first Christmas tree registered itself or not in Germany. Who can confirm it. There were cameras no that kept in their plates the memory from the things that happened. The unique thing that matters is that all we feel catched by that magical force that has that tree to make us live together to all the people (and because nonmascots) that comprise of our lives while we maintain in a sweet memory without nostalgia to which no longer they are but they were it at some time and that never stopped living in our hearts, a little while of union, peace and happiness. Merry Christmas for all those that read these pages and for that they do not know that it exists. Original author and source of the article
