Constructing Feminine Poetics in the Works of a Late-20th-Century Catalan Woman Poet: Maria-Mercè Marçal
This study focuses upon the work of the Catalan woman poet Maria-Mercè Marçal. It analyses the interaction between body and language in her first five books of poetry. Drawing on the Italian feminist thought of il pensiero della differenza sessuale, it examines the ways in which Marçal’s poetic images display her Catalan feminine subjectivity, including the function of the poet, the space of poetry and the representation of love. It also explores the potentiality of the space of poetry to reconstruct female identity and reconfigure reality. In addition, it unravels the way in which the poet uses poetry to express the love for the other whilst also extending the boundaries of the self. The central concern is to bridge the fissure between female experience and universal precepts on the art of poetry through the predominance of an embodied and natural iconography. This study presents Marçal’s poetic compositions within the international panorama of poetry and feminist studies and aims to open up new terrains of discussion in the field of language, body and writing.

El miracle és viure
Un segle de vida de Montserrat Abelló. Fins l’últim dia, amb noranta sis anys, va escriure poesia i sobre les seves vivències, i va preparar aquest llibre que va deixar gairebé enllestit. Els territoris de la infantesa: Tarragona, on va néixer prop d’un mar «més blau que en cap altre indret». Cadis. Londres, on aprèn a llegir, en anglès. Cartagena. Una joventut republicana, entusiasta, a Barcelona. El seu camí d’exili, el 1939, amb vint-i-un anys, acompanyant el seu pare de França al Londres dels inicis de la Guerra Mundial i, un any més tard, a Xile. La construcció d’una família. La necessitat d’escriure, que ja covava de feia anys, de descobrir i afirmar la seva id...
A Crown of Violets
* Finalist for the Headmistress Press Charlotte Mew Prize Renée Vivien (née Pauline Mary Tarn, 1877-1909) was an English expatriate who made her home in Paris during the Belle Époque. In 1903, Vivien's collection of translations and adaptations from the Ancient Greek poetry of Sappho became one of the first works of modern European lesbian literature to be published by a lesbian writer under her real name. This courageous act was the death-sentence of her literary career. Parisian critics who had praised the mysterious "R. Vivien" as a young man of poetic genius began to snub at first and then simply ignore the newly un-closeted woman poet. Even in the face of ridicule and disrespect, Viv...
