Feminist Readings on Spanish and Latin-American Literature

Essays presented here were selected from papers given at a conference held in June 1990 at the University of London. The conference included coverage of feminist readings of male and female writers, both Spanish and Latin-American, from the Golden Age to the late-20th century. The essays represent the British contribution to the ongoing debate on the interaction between feminism and hispanism. Writers examined include Calderon, Galdos, Valle-Inclan, Unamuno, Pardo Bazan, Rosa Chacel, Alfonsina Storni, Bombal, Luisa Valenzuela, and others.
