LITERATURE WORKSHOP - LAVAPIÉS

OCTOBER - NOVEMBER

Dijo el crítico literario, Harold Bloom, en la introducción del 150th aniversario de  Leaves of Grass:
If you are American, then Walt Whitman is your imaginative father and mother, even if, like myself, you have never composed a line of verse. You can nominate a fair number of literary works as candidates for the secular Scripture of the United States. They might include Melville's Moby-Dick, Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and Emerson's two series of Essays and The Conduct of Life. None of those, not even Emerson's, are as central as the first edition of Leaves of Grass.
Añadiría que si no eres norteamericano, no se puede comprender ni conocer los EEUU si no se conoce a Walt Whitman.

LUGAR: Lavapiés

PIONEERS - They lived centuries ago, but they traveled to the most remote corners of the world and exposed humanity's darkest sins, such as slavery. A look at great minds ahead of their times which happened to be female.
GOTHIC NOVELISTS - Supernatural events, ghosts, haunted houses, darkness, madness, secrets, curses...The most twisted pens of the 18th and 19th century hidden between the pleats of women's skirts.
SAPPHIC VOICES - The beginning of the 20th century brought with it the first evident representations of lesbianism in Anglo-American literature. From British all-girls boarding schools to borderlands and post-modernity, we will examine here the literature against invisibility.
CONTEMPORARY WOMEN WRITERS - In constant dialogue with their ancestors and with an innovative writing style, contemporary women writers prove us there is still a lot to be discovered in the field of literature.
