| Sumario: | Cecília Meireles’s poetic work (1901-1964) is well known. However, her prose work not so much. Even less are the various chronicles that thematize India. This article aims to reflect on the intense dialogue that the Brazilian writer established for years with Indian culture, especially with Mahatma Gandhi (18691948), the main political and religious leader of the country in the 20th century. We will study “the chronicles written in India”, on the occasion of the writer’s trip to the country, seeking to explain the Cecilian dialogue with Gandhian philosophy and ethics and with its principles of searching for Truth and the use of Non-Violence. |
