Abstract

During the Franco regime censorship acts on every demonstration or cultural work to spread the ideology promoted by Francoism, silencing any possible dissent. This work aims at analysing the controversial Spanish poet Gloria Fuertes who succeeded in crossing the lines imposed by hegemonic system and carved out her sacred space of anti-francoist resistance, although she had been discriminated for so long and confined within the narrow context of literature considered marginal. After a brief premise about border concept and some essential biographical references, then, the attention at first focuses on discriminations suffered by the author and secondly on her of new style and narrative tools able to oppose to the official speech promoted by the regime by overturning its theoretical assumptions in favour of a liberal and pacifist ideology.
