Problem
The Chilean poet, singer-songwriter and folklorist Violeta Parra (1917-1967) is the author of the poem "Thanks to life" (Available in the Virtual Reserve). Parra set this composition to music and included it on the album that bears the title, Las últimas composiciones , from 1966. She reads the poem carefully and answers the following premises:
a) Why does the lyrical voice feel grateful for life?
b) What figure of speech do you use to express your gratitude? Mention an example.
c) Which of the things you own would you give thanks for and why?
d) Listen to the musical version of the poem "Thanks to life".
