SUGGESTED CITATION: Emilie L. Bergmann and Richard Herr, ed., Mirrors and Echoes: Women’s Writing in Twentieth-Century Spain: University of California Press / UC Global, Area, and International Archive, vol. #2, 2007. http://repositories.cdlib.org/gaia/gaia_books/2

“With contributions by well-known and respected critics, writing of a very high caliber, and essays that explore hitherto uncharted territory, Mirrors and Echoes is a welcome addition to the growing literature on Spanish women's writing.”
Lou Charnon-Deutsch, author of Narratives of Desire: Nineteenth-Century Spanish Fiction by Women

Throughout Spain's tumultuous twentieth century, women writers produced a dazzling variety of novels, popular theater, and poetry. Their work both reflected and helped to transform women’s gender, family, and public roles, carving out new space in the literary canon. This multilingual collection of essays by both scholars and creative artists explores the diversity of Spanish women's writing, both celebrated and forgotten.

EMILIE L. BERGMANN is professor of Spanish at the University of California, Berkeley. RICHARD HERR is professor of history, emeritus, at the University of California, Berkeley.
