Conflictos y posibilidades de los escritores en el exilio. La discusión entre émile Cioran y Witold Gombrowicz

this article analyzes the answers the polish writer witold gombrowicz (exiled in argentina between 1939 and 1963) gave to the romanian philosopher emile cioran who published ''advantages and disadvantages of exile'' in 1953; an essay where he writes about writers in exile. the text promoted an interesting discussion by the polish writer. although the discussion was not successfully accepted, it was a very symbolic theme about the situation at that time. for this study, we look for support in gombrowicz's statements in his diary (published by the polich journal kultura) which became an priceless source as time passed, not only for studying his life and work, but also the environment of that period and the analysis made to exile in general.
