Before this Ignominious “Politics of Resurrection” we would have to remember that so oft-repeated phrase that Carpentier liked to cite: “The men with true talent never bother the others, those who poison the air around them, with the mediocre and ill-fated.” (.) The poison distilled from their pores by the gendarmes of culture splashed more than a few intellectuals and artists.
