Catherine O’Leary & Alison Ribeiro de Menezes 
A Companion to Carmen Martín Gaite [PDF ebook] 

Stöd

One of Spain’s most important twentieth-century women writers.
Carmen Martín Gaite produced a large body of work in various genres over the course of her five-decade career, though she is primarily known as a novelist, short story writer, and social commentator. Her work at times reflects, and at times defies, the pattern of development in Spanish fiction since the 1950s. This
Companion offers a re-reading of Martín Gaite’s works, emphasizing her early experimentalism which culminated in mid-career works (notably
El cuarto de atrás), and stressing how, in the late 1960s and early 1970s when the majority of Spanish novelists were engaged in a critique of history, Martín Gaite turned to the writing of cultural history, exploring its intersection with narrative fiction in a positivist rather than a nihilistic mode. Her exploration of gender issues, particularly mother-child relations, towards the end of her career anticipated new directions in feminist thought. Discussions of often-ignored works, such as poetry, drama, children’s literature, and literary translations, offer insight into sidelined aspects of this writer’s literary output.
CATHERINE O’LEARY lectures in Spanish at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth; ALISON RIBEIRO DE MENEZES is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Languages and Literatures, University College Dublin.
