The surge of creative literary activity among Chicano authors in the 1960s and 1970s became known as the Florecimiento, or Renaissance.[11] Notable Chicana poet Lucha Corpi published a collection of poetry that emphasizes the theme of culture and authored "LLuvia/Rain." This work creates a framework on Mexican cultural remembrance with an emphasis on the sensuality of rain that offers a sense of Mexican arts culture using the Nahua god of rain.[2] ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-6010.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-6010.txt
