Resumen

BENITEZ QUEVEDO, Ángela María. Alejo Carpentier: his trace, presence and brilliant revelation. Rev Hum Med [online]. 2004, vol.4, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1727-8120.

The present work constitutes a proposal to get closer to Alejo Carpentier's work, which is a mandatory reference for the studies of Cuban Cultural identity because of his undeniable contributions carried out from that particular way that he had of appropriation and interpretation of this matters. The value of the transcultural process expressed in and from the Cuban religious syncretism, as well as the complexities of the social and mental processes that intervene in the conformation of representative images of the peoples' spiritual, immaterial, oral intangible patrimony, are pointed out. In his work the discoveries of the immaterial and intangible patrimony of African towns, fused in time to another space, takes from its aesthetics of atmospheres to its proposal of new values through the liberation of the spirit; the cult to rebelliousness and the desire of independence. Hence, his revaluation of popular culture as the primary source for his studies in opposition to the sterilizing mimicry of academic art. His work: comprising, unifying and summoning from dissimilar connectivity spaces, urges us, and keeps inviting us today to a curious attitude in the essence of that Cuban cultural mixture. His narrative confirms us the certainty, of been itself that scientific method that allows us to capture the subjectivity of the human spaces, as indispensable elements in the history of peoples' cultures
