LITERARY GATHERING
LAS GUERRAS DE NUESTROS ANTEPASADOS
by Miguel Delibes
Monday 17 February at 18:30 at the Marbella Club
We will discuss Las guerras de nuestros antepasados (Austral, 2018, 288 pages), by the great Miguel Delibes. A moving novel of impeccable prose and innovative language, which leads us to reflect on and debate situations that seem to belong to the past but are still very much present. In the author’s own words, ‘The dialogue between the inmate Pacífico Pérez and Dr. Burgueño, the doctor at the prison sanatorium where he is interned, raises essential problems about human freedom and responsibility that we would do well to meditate on’. It will be a most interesting meeting.
We look forward to seeing you!

CINE FORUM
THERE´S STILL TOMORROW
Cycle: Italian cinema
25 February at 18:15
At the residence of Eloísa Sánchez-Amillategui
There´s still Tomorrow is a film shot in black and white, with excellent photography, good rhythm, a successful soundtrack, surprising musical moments and a very successful mise-en-scène. Its director, Paola Cortellesi, portrays with realism – she is Italian – an era, an environment, a family and a woman with many nuances. A story worth seeing and, of course, worthy of being commented on in depth. We look forward to seeing you.

IN MEMORY
DR. ANTONIO JIMÉNEZ MILLAN (1954-2025)
“I never sought certainties, but a clear awareness of the limits.
It is useless to lament the ravages of time and inhospitable old age, yes, as we know
Without dramas and delusions, life is invisible at a certain age”.
With this poem, one of his last works, we bid farewell to the great writer and professor Antonio Jiménez Millán, who captivated us with his wisdom in our 2022 seminar, European Avant-Garde. He will always be remembered.

OUR GRANTEE
MARÍA GUASCH
Communicating, making people know, relating with others and giving ideas so that the actions get visibility is the field in which Maria moves well. She also does good in an NGO that we know well and with which AMUM has been collaborating for years.
My name is Maria Guasch and I was an AMUM intern in the summer of 2018, where I was able to meet many fellow students who were also receiving the scholarship that year.

There she taught a subject that was off-limits to physicians at the time: the care of women during childbirth. From his work emerged two books that left a significant mark on science.
