Sumario:In this article are pointed out some of the different interpretations that have been developed in the biblical myth of Lot's woman during the twentieth century in poetry, especially written by women. The references are not limited only to poets from the Hispanic fields, but also to poets who are now a reference of the world lyric, such as Anna Akhmátova and Wislawa Szymborska. All the interpretations that are pointed out demonstrate the misogynist nature of traditional interpretations and provide new meanings. These project this myth in a positive key, in keeping with the will to break with the traditional hegemonic gaze that guides literary studies with a gender perspective and to give new senses to the story of literary history.
