This Monument, dedicated to the Great Guatemalan poet and Jesuit priest Rafael Landívar, can be found on the Alameda de Santa Lucía in Antigua Guatemala. Landívar (1731 – 1793) is best known for his work, Rusticatio Mexicana; 15 books, 5348 verses, written in Latin, published in Europe, during his time in exile, after the Jesuits were expelled from the Spanish Colonies in 1767. It’s considered one of the greatest poetic descriptions of Latin America ever written. In 1950, Landívar’s remains were returned to Guatemala where they found their final resting place at this monument.
