Julio Martínez Mesanza, Gloria
No full textulio Martínez Mesanza aclara en una breve nota al final de su Gloria que escribió estos versos entre agosto de 2005 y marzo de 2016 y que los compuso en Madrid, Túnez y Tel Aviv. La racionalidad cartesiana («abstracta» y tal vez «imperdonable») hace que él mismo sitúe en el tiempo y en el espacio sus poemas; pero esas dos coordenadas no explican lo que el lector acaba de experimentar: que tiene en sus manos una joya que solo raramente encuentra quien busca en la poesía belleza, emoción y verdad.Reseña del libro Gloria, de Julio Martínez Mesanza, de Santiago Miralles.

Self-definition through poetry in the work of Gloria Fuertes and Pilar Paz Pasamar in the period 1950-1970
No full textBased on a comparative method of enquiry, this thesis analyses the process of self-definition expressed in the work of Gloria Fuertes (Madrid, 1917-1998) and Pilar Paz Pasamar (Jerez de la Frontera, 1933) as individual alternatives to the collective ethos and literary practices promoted within the patriarchal society of Franco’s Spain. Recognizing the poets’ cultural and socio-political context as determining factors in their experiences as women and poets, and therefore in their outlook and poetics, this context and how it is reflected in their poetry provides the starting point (Chapter 1). Both poets acknowledge that writing poetry can provide them with a metaphorical space of freedom that enables them to develop their identity and explore their preoccupations. Therefore, their thoughts about poetry provide an important theme that occurs in the poetry of both (Chapter 2). Closely related to this is the link they establish between poetic inspiration and the divine, which in the case of Pilar Paz Pasamar leads to the attempt to use the special qualities of poetic language to refer to a universal truth that she is aware of and which transcends the capabilities of language, while Gloria Fuertes regards poetry as a divine gift that can provide solace and is ultimately able to improve the world (Chapter 3). The fourth chapter focuses on specific elements of the two poets’ work that reveal the distinctive mechanisms of self-construction they develop. The section on Fuertes considers humour as a survival strategy that enables the poet to reach out to her readership and emphasize her focus on the here and now, while the discussion on Paz’s work looks at how the use of sea imagery allows her to convey abstract experiences based on introspection. Thus, it is argued that their poetry reflects the different strategies the two women develop – based on integration in the case of Fuertes and a more separate position in the case of Paz – to define themselves in relation to their world
