Gaite","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe career of Spain's celebrated author Carmen Mart? Gaite spanned the Spanish Civil War, Franco's dictatorship, and the nation's transition to democracy. She wrote fiction, poetry, drama, screenplays for television and film, and books of literary and cultural analysis. The only person to win Spain's National Prize for Literature (Premio Nacional de las Letras) twice, Mart? Gaite explored and blended a range of genres, from social realism to the fantastic, as she took up issues of gender, class, economics, and aesthetics in a time of political upheaval.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 1 (\"Materials\") of this volume provides resources for instructors and a literary-historical chronology. The essays in part 2 (\"Approaches\") consider Mart? Gaite's best-known novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Back Room\u003c\/i\u003e (\u003ci\u003eEl cuarto de atr疽\u003c\/i\u003e), and other works from various perspectives: narratological, feminist, sociocultural, stylistic. In an appendix, the volume editor, who was a friend of the author, provides a new translation of Mart? Gaite's only autobiographical sketch, alongside the original Spanish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan L.
