Ramón Mauricio González Gutiérrez (born September 4, 1983), known by his pen name José Baroja,[1][2] is a Chilean writer, academic and editor. He is a member of the Poets of the World Movement,[3] representative of the Neofantastic Short-story[4] and the new Chilean narrative.[5]
Biography
[edit]As the eldest son of three brothers,[6] he was born in the Regional Hospital of Valdivia, Chile, in 1983.[7] But he lives his adolescence in the city of Maipú in Santiago de Chile.[8]
He graduated from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile with a bachelor's degree in Letters, with a mention in Linguistics and Hispanic Literature, and a master's degree in Letters and a mention in Literature.
Between 2007 and 2017, he began to give lectures[9] and workshops on both subjects in several universities and institutes in Chile,[10] mainly in Santiago, Talca[11][12] and Valdivia.[13] Besides this, he participates in seminars and congresses in the area, among which Primer Encuentro Nacional de Escritores Gabriela Mistral stands out, in Los Andes,[14] and Tercer Encuentro Internacional de Historia y Literatura Araucanía 2017 of The University of la Frontera, in Temuco.[15]
Still in 2017, he premiered his literary recognition with the first prize in the Gonzalo Rojas Pizarro Literary contest.[16] This was followed by other awards in Argentina and Chile, as well as the publication of his first book, El hombre del terrón de azúcar y otros cuentos.[17] At the end of this year, he founded the RunRun storytelling group,[18] presenting his work in various libraries and schools in Maule[19] and O'Higgins.[20]
In 2018, after participating in some interviews[21] about the death of Nicanor Parra,[22] Baroja was invited to Mexico for the first time, first for the XI Encuentro Internacional de Investigadores de Lengua y Literatura and the XII Festival Internacional de Literatura "Palabra en el Mundo",[23] organized by Universidad Autónoma de Chiapas in Tuxtla Gutiérrez and San Cristóbal de las Casas,[24] and, later, for the Guadalajara International Book Fair.[25] In October of that same year, he published several articles and stories about the social outburst in Chile.[26] In November, he was invited to participate in the First Chonchón Latin American Meeting of Poets and Narrators, in Lebu, Chile.[27]
In 2019, after a fleeting visit to Mexico City, Toronto, Barcelona and Buenos Aires,[28] the latter places where El curioso caso de la sombre que murió como un recuerdo y otros cuentos and Cuentos Reunidos-Antología Breve are born, he decided to migrate to Guadalajara, Mexico.[29] Later that year, he co-founded in Lebu, Chile,[30] the arts and letters magazine Sudras y Parias, together with Chilean writers Jaime Magnan and Alfredo Ojeda Torres[31] and was invited to the Fourth Meeting of Writers of Tapachula,[32] in Chiapas.[33]
During his stay in Mexico, Baroja became a member of the Poets of the World Movement, in addition to becoming the co-founder of Audacia Editorial,[34][35] in Zapopan, Jalisco.[36]
In 2020, he participated in the International Festival of Sonora Literature, in San Luis Río Colorado[37] and publish in Lima, Peru, El lado oscuro de la sombra y otros ladridos.[38]
In 2021, No fue un catorce de febrero y otros cuentos is published in Spain.[39]
In 2022, he married the Mexican writer Leyda Mariscal.[40]
In 2023 he is incorporated as an author in the directory of the Creative Community of Los Ríos,[41] dependent on the Ministry of Cultures, arts and heritage of the Government of Chile.[42] It also publishes in Barcelona, Spain, Sueño en Guadalajara y otros cuentos,[43] while it was translated into French by Agata Mendes de Carvalho in Toulouse,[44] France, and is part of the Chilean delegation that participates in the Guadalajara International Book Fair, along with writers such as Victor Munita Fritis,[45] Alejandro Zambra, Pablo Simonetti, María José Ferrada, the scientists Sebastián Pérez and Paula Jofré, and the visual artists Consuelo Terra, Pablo Delcielo and Catalina Bu.[46]
In 2024, he is included in the Encyclopedia of Literature in Mexico (ELEM), a digital encyclopedia on the literature of Mexico, edited by the Foundation for Mexican Letters,[47] supported by the Ministry of Culture and the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature from Mexico.[48]
Style and influences
[edit]Baroja's narrative is characterized by a simple and well-kept language,[49] although with a complex background that requires an important cultural background;[50] in contrast, his poetry tends towards the visceral and little content.[51] Among his narrative influences, Jorge Luis Borges, María Luisa Bombal, Manuel Rojas and Oscar Wilde stand out,[52] authors from whom he takes satire,[53] irony and care for the language.[54]
