Literature Culture Studies Spanish Poetry Contemporary Difference Experience This work both reconstructs and demystifies Spain’s poetic literary field at the dawn of the 21st century, during which a cultural conflict brewed between the centralized and hegemonic “poets of experience” and the marginalized and counter-hegemonic “poets of difference”. Surging quickly to national notoriety and canonicity after the publication of their 1982 manifesto, the immense literary and social influence of the poets of experience began to fall out of favor by the early 1990s. This cultural ebbing allowed for the emergence of a new group, the poets of difference, who sought for an innovative, individualistic, aesthetic and their own place in the rich lineage of Spanish poetry. By employing the sociocultural theories of Pierre Bourdieu and Itamar Even-Zohar, this work examines the social discourses and mechanisms of this particular ethos in order to bring light to the heterodox poets of difference as portrayed through the works of Federico Gallego Ripoll and Juan Carlos Mestre. 2016 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1468574822 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1468574822 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
