Drawing on the autobiographical texts of Juan Goytisolo, Carlos Barral, Terenci Moix, and Clara Janes, the book explores how these authors understood gender roles and paternal figures as well as how they positioned themselves in relation to Spanish and Catalan literary traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnna Casas Aguilar contends that through their presentation of father figures, these authors subvert static ideas surrounding fatherhood. She argues that this diversity was crucial in opening the door to revised gender models in Spain during the democratic period. Moving beyond the shadow of the dictator, Casas Aguilar shows how these writers distinguished between the patriarchal \u0026amp;quot;father of the nation\u0026amp;quot; and their own paternal figures. In doing so, \u003ci\u003eBilingual Legacies\u003c\/i\u003e sheds light on the complexity of Spanish conceptions of gender, language, and family and illustrates how notions of masculinity, authorship, and canon are interrelated.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47919581364382,"sku":"ING-9781487545000","price":107.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781487545000.jpg?v=1782813831","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781487545000","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
