description Even though they are often linked to the “intimist” current of Postmodernism, Dulce María Loynaz’s work, as well as her authorial figure, stand out in the context of Twentieth Century Cuban literature. In this paper we first intend to examine some procedures that cooperate in the visual dimension of Loynaz’s poetic writing. With this in mind, we offer a reading of the poem “Retrato de Infanta”, included in Versos, 1920-1938, from a gender perspective. Secondly, the metaphor of a museum of one’s own invites us to trace the pictorial imaginary in Loynaz’s characterization of the Latin American “poetisas”, a gallery of women that she approached in various occasions and of which she was a member.

In this paper we first intend to examine some procedures that cooperate in the visual dimension of Loynaz’s poetic writing. With this in mind, we offer a reading of the poem “Retrato de Infanta”, included in Versos, 1920-1938, from a gender perspective. Secondly, the metaphor of a museum of one’s own invites us to trace the pictorial imaginary in Loynaz’s characterization of the Latin American “poetisas”, a gallery of women that she approached in various occasions and of which she was a member. Aunque se las suele encasillar dentro del espectro del “posmodernismo intimista”, tanto la obra como la figura autoral de Dulce María Loynaz ofrecen singularidades que no tienen parangón en la literatura cubana del siglo xx. En este trabajo nos proponemos examinar, en primer lugar, algunos procedimientos que cooperan en la dimensión visual de su escritura poética. Para ello, ofrecemos una lectura en clave de género del poema “Retrato de infanta”, perteneciente a Versos, 1920-1938. En segundo lugar, la metáfora del museo propio nos invita a rastrear la presencia del imaginario pictórico en la caracterización de las “poetisas americanas”, una galería de mujeres que Loynaz abordó en diversas ocasiones y de la que ella misma formó parte. 2016-10-17 2022-03-22T14:26:42Z 2022-03-22T14:26:42Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://meridional.uchile.cl/index.php/MRD/article/view/43545 10.5354/0719-4862.2016.43545 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/77996 spa https://meridional.uchile.cl/index.php/MRD/article/view/43545/45558 https://meridional.uchile.cl/index.php/MRD/article/view/43545/45559 application/pdf text/html Universidad de Chile.
