Abstract

SOUZA DA SILVA, Jacicarla. Around an (In)Visible College in Latin America. univ.humanist. [online]. 2015, n.79, pp.165-189. ISSN 0120-4807.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.UH79.etic.

Based on the concept of «invisible college» of Chilean critic, Ana Pizarro (2004) -a concept that highlights the creation of some groups of writers that established contact networks, both intellectual and personal, during the first decades of the 20th century-, the aim of this study is to rethink the feminine-authored production within the Latin-American context. Said production is to be considered as the evidence of the importance of the creation and organization of these feminine cores in relation to their inclusion into spaces dominated by men. For this purpose, and starting with the works of poet Gabriela Mistral, the objective of this work is to show the dialogue established between her and poet Cecilia Meireles. In this way, we can highlight the creation of a group of writers that acted in this feminine universe in Latin America -halfway through the 20th century-, with the aim of emphasizing the plurality of feminine voices in this context.

Keywords : Latin America; woman; literature; intellectual; Gabriela Mistral; Cecilia Meireles.
