BY HARRISON SMITH

Father Ernesto Cardenal, a Ni-
caraguan poet, priest and p olitical
revolutionary who wielded his
pen a s a weapon against two auto-
cratic regimes — t he Somoza fami-
ly dynasty and the l eft-wing Sand-
inista party that took its place —
died March 1 in Managua, Nicara-
gua’s capital. He w as 95.
His personal assistant, Luz Ma-
rina Acosta, confirmed the death
to the Associated Press. Father
Cardenal had recently been hospi-
talized for respiratory problems.
In a sign of his renown in Nicara-
gua, the government o f Sandinista
leader Daniel Ortega ordered
three days of national mourning,
despite having persecuted Father
Cardenal after he resigned from
the Sandinista National Libera-
tion Front (FSLN) in the early
199 0s.
For many Nicaraguans, Father
Cardenal was revered as a literary
beacon and a moral authority, a
Catholic priest who drew on Marx
as well a s the G ospels t o champion
social justice in his ministry and
writings.
One of Latin America’s most
acclaimed poets, he wrote verses
that offered a cosmic fusion of
spirituality, politics, science and
history, while appearing at fre-
quent lectures and readings that
made him a kind of international
ambassador for N icaragua.
Father Cardenal drew few
boundaries between his callings.
The son of a wealthy Nicaraguan
family, he fought with a revolu-
tionary group in his late 20s, then
emerged as a leading proponent of
liberation t heology, which empha-
sizes Jesus’s message to the poor
and o ppressed.

With a thick beard and trade-
mark black beret, he served Mass
to Sandinista revolutionaries in
the jungle, later joining Ortega
when those forces marched into
Managua in 1979 and toppled the
Somoza family, whose rule had
lasted m ore than 40 years.
Declaring that “the triumph of
the revolution is the triumph of
poetry,” he went on to work for
nearly a decade as Nicaragua’s
minister of culture, angering the
Vatican with his mix of politics
and r eligion while a iming to teach
tens of thousands of Nicaraguans
how to read and w rite.
Father Cardenal traced his reli-
gious convictions to the years he
spent at a Trappist monastery in
Kentucky, where he befriended
Thomas Merton, the distin-
guished writer and p riest. He l ater
completed his religious training
in Mexico, Colombia and Nicara-
gua, where he was ordained in
1965 and settled on the Solentina-
me Islands in Lake N icaragua.
He had originally intended to
establish a parish church. But Fa-
ther Cardenal, a sculptor as well as
a writer, instead presided over a
sprawling art colony, turning So-
lentiname into a haven for paint-
ers and spiritual seekers alike. On
Sundays, he led the islanders in
discussions of Christianity, even-
tually recording their conversa-
tions and adapting the dialogues
into a multivolume work, “The
Gospel in Solentiname” (1975),
considered a touchstone of libera-
tion theology.
“A s the p easants o f Solentiname
got deeper and deeper into the
Gospel,” Father Cardenal wrote in
the book, “they could not help but
feel united to their brother and
sister peasants who were s uffering
persecution and t error.... For this
solidarity t o be r eal they h ad to lay
security, and life, on the l ine.”
Some of the i slanders joined the
Sandinistas, organizing in a 1977
raid against Anastasio Somoza
Debayle’s forces with the blessing
of Father Cardenal. The govern-
ment responded by destroying t he
Solentiname chapel and other
buildings, and Father Cardenal
was labeled t he “No. 1 enemy of the
people.”
He later served in the Sandinis-
ta cabinet alongside his brother,
education minister and fellow
Catholic priest Fernando Carde-
nal, who died in 2016. Both men
defied Pope John Paul I I’s order t o
quit their government jobs and
focus on their ministries, a nd dur-
ing a 1983 visit to Managua the
pope publicly reprimanded Fa-
ther Cardenal, reportedly telling
him to “straighten out your posi-
tion with the church.”
The next year, Father Cardenal
was suspended from the priest-

hood, setting off a break with the

church that was repaired only last

year, when he was absolved by

Pope Francis. By then, Father

Cardenal had become an outspo-

ken critic of Ortega, whose party

had stifled a rebellion from a CIA-

backed army known as the c ontras

and was accused of rampant cor-

ruption a nd human rights abuses.

His split from the Sandinistas

was “perhaps his most important

political legacy,” said Manuel

Orozco, a Nicaragua scholar with

the Inter-American Dialogue in

Washington. The party had “re-

fused to recognize the atrocities

committed in the 1980s,” Orozco

said in an email, and transformed

“into a typical Latin American cli-

entelistic and populist party.” Af-

ter Ortega returned to power in

200 7, he added, Father Cardenal

“was politically persecuted by the

government, publicly attacked by

the r egime and even legally prose-

cuted on false charges.”

“It was a beautiful revolution.

But what happened is that it was

betrayed,” Father Cardenal told

the Agence France-Presse in 2015,

recalling his turn away from the

Sandinistas. “There is now the

family dictatorship of Daniel Or-

tega. That’s not what we fought

for.”

Ernesto Cardenal Martínez w as

born in Granada, on the shores of

Lake Nicaragua, on Jan. 20, 1925.

After graduating from a Jesuit

high school, he studied literature

at the National Autonomous Uni-

versity o f Mexico and at Columbia

University in Manhattan, where

he immersed himself in American

poetry.

“From Ezra Pound, William

Carlos Williams and Marianne

Moore he borrowed the b elief t hat

poetry is a public language of pre-

cise documentary facts that he

called ‘exteriorismo,’ ” said North-

western professor Harris Feinsod,

author o f “The Poetry o f the A mer-

icas: From Good Neighbors to

Countercultures.”

“A t the same time, from Latin

American poets like Rubén Darío

and Pablo Neruda, he took the

belief that poetry could be a vehi-

cle for Latin American nations to

craft independent political vi-

sions,” Feinsod added by email.

Poems such as “Zero Hour” and

“With Walker in Nicaragua” re-

called the history of U.S. imperial-

ism through figures such as Sam

Zemurray, the head of United

Fruit Company, and William

Walker, who conquered Nicara-

gua in the mid-1850s.

Father Cardenal also spoke out

against the Somoza regime in his

verse, skirting government cen-

sorship by publishing outside the

country as an “A nonymous Nica-

raguan.” His later works increas-

ingly incorporated scientific

themes, n otably in “Cosmic Canti-

cle” (1989), a 500-page poem that

drew on the theories of physicists

such as Richard Feynman and Ste-

phen Hawking.

“Science brings me close t o God

because it describes the universe

and creation, and that brings me

close to the creator,” he told the

New York Times in 2015. “For me

this is a prayer.”

Father Cardenal leaves no im-

mediate survivors, according to

local news reports. In r ecent years

he led a Granada cultural center,

the Casa de los Tres Mundos, and

received literary h onors including

Chile’s P ablo N eruda Ibero-Ameri-

can Poetry Award and Spain’s

Reina Sofia poetry prize.

In interviews, Father Cardenal

declared that Jesus had l ed him to

Marx, once c alling himself “a revo-

lutionary for the sake of His king-

dom.”

“The Bible is full of revolu-

tions,” he said at a public reading

in 2014. “The prophets are people

with a message of revolution. Je-

sus of Nazareth takes the revolu-

tionary message of the prophets.

And we also will c ontinue trying t o

change the world and make revo-

lution. Those revolutions failed,

but o thers will c ome.”
