Contemporary Latin American Women Poets

Catalog description

This course seeks to focus on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries through the work of women authors who changed the course of poetry in Latin America, both for the incorporation of their highly personal creations to the general panorama of literature and for the significance of their condition as women in the map of recent poetry. The trajectory of Alfonsina Storni, Olga Orozco, Blanca Varela, Alejandra Pizarnik, and María Mercedes Carranza, among others, will be studied.
