Despite the fact that these conflicts crossed the field of progressive militancy in a transversal way, the text focuses on the specific case of a writer who occupied a leading place among the leftist tendencies of that time. The objective is to investigate how Galeano faced the difficulties posed by exile, namely: nostalgia for his native land, guilt for having exiled himself in the midst of repression, the feeling of cowardice derived from it, the pain for the murder of his friends and the challenge of preparing a critical reflection on his own militancy experience. To these ends, the analysis strategy will aim to distinguish continuities and breaks in the writer's aesthetic and political thought. For this, the work will use as sources the testimonial chronicle Days and Nights of Love and War (2000 [1978]) and different articles that Galeano published between 1976 and 1985. Este trabajo aborda los conflictos ideológicos, políticos y éticos que afrontaron los intelectuales que decidieron exiliarse tras el estallido de las dictaduras latinoamericanas de la década de 1970. Aunque se trata de conflictos que atravesaron el campo de la militancia revolucionaria de manera trasversal, el texto se centra en el caso concreto de un escritor que ocupó un lugar protagónico entre las corrientes de izquierda de aquella época. El objetivo es indagar cómo afrontó Galeano las dificultades que implicó el exilio, a saber: la nostalgia por la tierra natal, la culpa por haberse exiliado en medio de la represión, la sensación de cobardía derivada de ello, el dolor frente al asesinato de sus amigos y el desafío de elaborar una reflexión crítica sobre su propia experiencia de militancia. A estos fines, la estrategia de análisis apuntará a distinguir continuidades y rupturas en el imaginario estético y político del escritor. Para ello se utilizarán como fuentes la crónica testimonial Días y noches de amor y de guerra (2000 [1978]) y diversos artículos que Galeano público entre 1976 y 1985.
