About this listen

Hace quinientos años, la expedición de Magallanes y Elkano dio la primera vuelta al mundo. Ahora Ander Izagirre sale de Getaria y vuelve a Getaria, el pueblo natal de Elkano, para darle una vuelta geográfica, histórica y mental al país de los vascos.

Viaja en bicicleta y va encontrando historias asombrosas: las de hace quinientos años (navegantes, exploradores, esclavos, revolucionarios, emperadores, desterrados, balleneros, espíritus locales, dioses remotos) y las actuales (exploradoras, pescadores, mineras, inmigrantes, carpinteros, arqueólogas, cocineros, escultores, poetas, chocolateros). Sus relatos muestran los contrastes y las similitudes entre la sociedad vasca que participó en la primera vuelta al mundo y la actual. Desvelan una historia de luces y sangres, un potaje de culturas y una pasión exploradora.

Mezclando la crónica de viajes, la narración de aventuras, la exposición histórica y el ensayo sutil, Izagirre cuestiona el mito del vasco irreductible, puro, encerrado en sus esencias: «Si hay que simplificarlos en una estampa, los vascos no fueron precisamente un pueblo de campesinos aislados, sino un pueblo de navegantes promiscuos».

Siempre viene bien darle una vuelta a todo. Especialmente a los países.
