"Umbrales" de la antología: autoría y género en las poéticas de Ernestina de Champourcin y Josefina de la Torre

Abstract

The objective of this article is to analyze the poetics composed by Spanish womenwriters that are included in poetry anthologies in the 20 th century. These paratexts, in which the authorsdescribe their ideas about poetic creation, are fundamental for the comprehension of the anthology asa book and they constitute a key document for the self-representation of Spanish women writers. Forthat purpose, I recur to recent works developed around the question of the author in the francophone context, with the works of Jose-Luis Diaz, Dominique Maingueneau, Jérôme Meizoz or Ruth Amossy at the forefront, and to the feminist literary theory that during decades has been focused on the relationship between gender and authorship. Finally, I study from this point of view the poetics byErnestina de Champourcin and Josefina de la Torre included in Poesía española. Antología (Los contemporáneos) (1934) by Gerardo Diego.
