(2023) “What Fits in One Hand”: On the Entanglement with Things of Republican Women Writers and Artists in Exile. Romanic Review, 114 (2): 341–359. doi: https://doi.org/10.1215/00358118-10604236 0035-8118 http://hdl.handle.net/10366/154379 10.1215/00358118-10604236 [EN]This article examines the relationships that developed in exile between women writers and artists and things following the Spanish Civil War. Our analysis is based on self-writing and visual art. Using a New Materialist theoretical framework, the article shows how, for these women in exile, things had agency, producing entanglements, ruptures (desgarros), or moorings necessary for a new orientation. Disorientation, arising from the new social and geographical context of exile, also affects the uses and function of things. This produces a subjectivity saturated by material phenomena, the relationship with which is heightened by the experience of fleeing one’s country. The writers and artists discussed include Victorina Durán, Mada Carreño, María Luisa Elío, Silvia Mistral, María Teresa de León, Concha Méndez, and Maruja Mallo. All of them went into exile in Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, specifically Mexico, Argentina, and Chile. eng Duke University Press Republican women exiles Things Entanglements Artistic culture Self-writing 6203 Teoría, Análisis y Critica de las Bellas Artes 6202 Teoría, Análisis y Crítica Literarias 5204.03 Migraciones 5501 Biografías “What Fits in One Hand”: On the Entanglement with Things of Republican Women Writers and Artists in Exile Iberian Materialities info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccess
