The Journal of Avant-Garde Studies (JAGS) and its guest editors invite submissions for the special issue “Las Vanguardistas: Spanish Women Poets in Transnational Contexts (1920–1975)”.

By proposing this special issue, we aim to foster a global understanding of avant-garde movements and highlight the key role of Spanish women poets in the transnational avant-garde scene from the 1920s to the 1970s. To this end, we welcome academic articles that focus on, but are not limited to, the following topics:

Transnational Literary Networks between Spanish, European and Latin American Women Poets. Spanish Women and the Avant-Garde Press: Women’s Contributions to Avant-Garde Magazines. Spanish Women and Salon Culture: Women’s Participation in Avant-Garde Literary Circles, Institutions, Academies and Salons.   Spanish Women and their Contribution to Avant-Garde Movements (Ultraísmo, Surrealismo, Estridentismo, Creacionismo, Dadaísmo etc.).  Spanish Avant-Garde Poetry in Translation. Circulation and Dissemination of  Avant-Garde Poetry through the Work of Translators.   Spanish Women Poets and Avant-Garde Theater. Spanish Women Poets and Avant-Garde Cinema. Comparative Approaches to Women’s Poetry. Avant-Garde Themes and Motifs in a Comparative Context (case studies are welcome).  Spain’s Exclusion from Studies of the International Avant-Garde. Generational Approaches to Spanish Avant-Garde Poetry and How to Move Beyond the Generational Model. Beyond the “Center” vs. “Periphery” Paradigm. Attempts to “Transnationalize” and “Decenter” the Avant-Garde by Including Spanish Women Poets in our Corpus.
