In this interview we meet the man behind "Letters Paraguayas", the Guaraní Portal collecting literary and historical materials of our country. Passionate about everything he does, Eduardo Pratt is becoming an indispensable figure for those who wish to advertise his art to the readers of Paraguay and the English-speaking countries.
"I was born in 1968 in Asunción. I attended primary and secondary studies at the Colegio San José, the university students until the third year at the Catholic University of Our Lady of the Assumption. I was president of the Student Center for two periods, general coordinator of 4 University Games, administrative manager of the club Olimpia and Sol de America Asuncion, administrative secretary of the Copa America Paraguay 1999. Currently, I serve as director of web space www.portalguarani.com "she says.
1 - How did the idea of a gigantic Portal for "The Paraguayan Free?
In 2008, I initiated a project to build a website for the sale of works of art, books and sundries, but Paraguayan origin. Soon transformed the original idea of a more comprehensive and encompassing (but not profitable in the short or medium term), initially for the dissemination of visual arts, that is, created a space where the original idea was to add biographical data , reviews and works of artists included in the Dictionary of Visual Arts, Mr. Lisandro Cardozo. Augment the data with Titius works Escobar, Olga Blinder, Josefina Plá, Vicky Torres, Livio Abramo, Osvaldo Gonzalez Real People and the Catalogue of Art-Production 90.
The purpose was the dissemination of culture: well, another key element was missing: the lyrics, so I created another gallery named 'LETRAS PARAGUAY', used for the same book Paraguaya Anthology of Literature by Teresa Méndez-Faith; I complement the gallery with R. Carlos materials Centurion, Juan Sinforiano Buzó, Francisco Pérez-Maricevich, Victor Suárez, Susy Delgado, Raúl Amaral, Miguel Angel Fernández, Mario Halley Mora, Rudi Torga, Pedro Encina Ramos, Carlos Villagra Marsal, Victor Daniel Toral, Luis María Martínez. For composers and musicians section I relied on the Dictionary of Music and Paraguay, by Luis Szarán, and the works of the Florentine master Giménez.
In two years I have used as a reference more than 1,000 books and 2,000 documents, including essays, music and lyrics by Paraguayan songs, speeches and lectures that highlight the work of more than 1,150 representatives of our written culture.
in the Arts, mentions the work of more than 450 Paraguayan artists with a record over 10,000 works.
3 - What is Portalguarani.com, in short?
A comprehensive database where both the national and international public can find details of artists, writers, composers, numismatics (coins and notes), postage, reports on museums, cultural centers and art galleries.
I must stress that the public does not have any restrictions on access to any information, do not have to pay anything or register.
The portal itself has no word, no opinion for or against anyone, has no political or religious ideology, nor is the largest nor the smallest. Its goal is to become a working tool and what highlighting it is to convey information to the source of information.
4 - What forms part of the portal?
Portalguarani.com The spaces are free to authors and Paraguayan artists. For those already included, can contribute to updating the information provided and completing the work and exhibition space for artists or published materials. You can also include previously unpublished texts.
Ideally keep the base from first to last activity of the artist / author.
artists are not yet to approach the office the necessary materials to build your space. For lovers
art or literature, the doors are open to any collaboration with materials, images, ideas and suggestions.
5 - Is there a space for our intangible heritage, the Guarani language?
The Guaraní language is an important part of what the Paraguayan is a component of his life, his pride and conveys a sensible way of being and living.
We must not lose, and their importance to global and local language is now an undeniable reality.
Al gram, the portal now contains slightly more than 1,000,000 words in Guarani, including documents, poems, stories, and drama which included works Manuel Ortiz Guerrero, Emiliano R. Fernández, Rudi Torga, Felix Fernandez, Julio Correa, Lino Trinidad Sanabria, Guarania Felix, Susy Delgado, Meza Michelangelo and many more.
6 - Digital Editions can be found in Portalguarani.com?
Our work in the lyric PARAGUAY, summarized reference book, highlighting cover, preface, index, and a small fragment of the book for visitors to achieve fully integrated into the author's world. The goal is to buy the book or post material from the same author. 
As for your question, YES, you can access more than 300 books by authors who are mentioned in the space of the author but linked to the Library, "Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes", "Paraguay's Virtual Library" and "Augusto Roa Bastos Virtual Library of the Centro Cultural El Cabildo. 
6 - What else would like to add? much, but the bottom line is that through this medium to invite all artists and authors referred to participate in a Paraguayan project that eventually will not have anything to envy of any global page. It seems OF PARAGUAY TO THE WORLD.
