Summary
Shortly thereafter, her brother Nicanor Parra (1914–2018, Cervantes Prize in 2011), in a kind gesture, changed the ending: “Run or it will catch you! / Violeta Parra.”3 As Paula Miranda notes, the songwriter, folklorist, ethnomusicologist, and visual artist, whose best-known and most renowned poem-song is “Gracias a la vida” (Thanks to Life), “made no distinction between singers and poets.”4 In this sense, she and her brother were ahead of their time and the cultural meaning of the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature bestowed upon American songwriter Bob Dylan.
