GARCIA, Mabel. EL PROCESO DE RETRADICIONALIZACIÓN CULTURAL EN LA POESÍA MAPUCHE ACTUAL: ÜI DE ADRIANA PAREDES PINDA. Rev. chil. lit. [online]. 2012, n.81, pp. 51-68. ISSN 0718-2295.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-22952012000100003.

Present cultural manifestations of Mapuche people correspond to asymmetric cross-cultural practices with Western Chilean society. Within this context, Mapuche cultural manifestations aim at establishing an art with a distinct identity by implementing diverse strategies that emphasize the ancient Mapuche tradition. This situation is clearly reflected in ÜI, a poetic literary work published by Adriana Paredes Pinda (LOM, 2005). Her poetic discourse displays ancestral languages andpractices associated with the ritual and sacred tradition, thus reproducing the conditions of a "discourse ofpower".
