| Sumario: | In this article I am interested in dwelling on the analysis of the representations of the lesbian in two current texts, the novel El fuego entre nosotras (2021) by Dalia Rosetti and the book of poems This love so great (2022) by Marie Gouiric. These books take on a political potential because Rosetti imagines a revolution that destroys everything in the midst of a critique of the art markets and a record of the different itineraries of love and desire.And because in Marie Gouiric's poems there is a voice that recovers always marginalized women and celebrates them seeking to create an unsubmissive lineage. Both texts create spaces for invention where lesbian sexuality is presented as rebellious against the games of power, disobedient to the canons and hierarchies presented by the world of art, questioning impositions while presenting a moved and sensitive subjectivity, which establishes bonds and affiliations with her predecessors and overflows affections towards the world.In this work, I am interested in addressing these locations from a reading that recovers the political sense of affects (Ahmed, 2016) and of stories to think about literary representations as worlds that bring into play dynamics of meanings that create sensitivities, affects, and perceptions that constitute the social and shape the political.Rosetti's novel and Gouiric's poems invent a space from which sexual dissidence gains political power through its attack on the established orders but also through its display of lesbian affectivities sensitive to the other. |
