The Biography: The Biographical Note.

It is a simple and sketchy writing job; presents the brief biographical data in chronological order; it resists literary beauty. They are cold data of the life of an individual: place and date of birth, studies, academic and professional merits, contributions; is the resume.
I put a model of a biographical note, taken from the book Literatura Mexicana, by Ma. Del Carmen Millán.
"GABRIELA MISTRAL. Lucila Godoy Alcayaga (Chile, 1889-1957), better known by her pseudonym Gabriela Mistral, was a rural teacher. One of his constant activities was teaching, the fruits of which were reaped, both in Chile and in Mexico. She held important positions in the consular service and in international organizations. He received in 1945, the Nobel Prize for Literature. Within poetry, he learned the first lessons from the modernists, although later he went his own way. The theme of her poetry is love. Desolación (1922) collects the compositions that refer to her first love and her tragic end. All the gradations of the loving feeling are expressed in this book. By sublimating his pain, he sings to universal love, and especially to children. Tala (1938) continues the line of Desolation. His last book is Lagar (1954). His first work set the tone for his poetry: vigor and energy. That is why his predilections are in the Old Tísiamento, in the Book of Job, and in the Russian novel. This external hardness is due to the deep moral texture of his poetry; she goes in search of the expression intact, and in truth she reaches it with magnificence.
