I10-R337-article-327222021-04-12T15:48:12Z Virginia Woolf: una interpretación de Antígona, “obra maestra”, “propaganda antifascista” y algo más Chikiar Bauer, Irene Virginia Woolf Antigone feminism pacifism antifascism Virginia Woolf Antígona feminismo pacifismo antifascismo Since an early age, Virginia Woolf sensed the need to find alternatives to the rules established by the Victorian society, which didn’t allow women to get into college. Studying and reading Greek became for her a way of resistance and rebellion. Besides she felt absolutely necessary to have a good knowledge of Greek classics for her writer’s training, she continued reading the Greeks over and over trough her whole life. Stands out in this context her relation with Sophocles’ Antigone, mentioned since her first novel, The Voyage Out, and then in her books A Room of One’s Own, Three Guineas and The Years; as well as in the essay “On Not Knowing Greek”, included in her book The Common Reader. In this work it is showed that, through her interpretation and reelaboration of Antigone’s myth, Virginia Woolf expressed her feminism (mainly as a resistance to the patriarchal system), connecting it to her pacifist and antifascist view. Desde muy joven, Virginia Woolf sintió la necesidad de encontrar alternativas a las normas instauradas por la sociedad victoriana, que no admitía que las mujeres ingresaran a las universidades. En ese sentido, para ella, estudiar y leer en griego se constituyeron como formas de resistencia y rebelión. Además de que sentía que era indispensable un buen manejo de los autores griegos para su formación como escritora, a lo largo de toda su vida retomó, insistentemente, la lectura de sus obras. Destaca en ese contexto su relación con la Antígona, de Sófocles, mencionada desde su primera novela Fin de viaje, y luego en sus libros Un cuarto propio, Tres guineas, y Los años; así como en el ensayo “Acerca de no conocer el griego”, incluido en El lector común. En este trabajo y, teniendo como referencia los escritos mencionados, se muestra que, a través de su interpretación y reelaboración del mito de Antígona, la autora inglesa expresó su feminismo (especialmente como resistencia al sistema patriarcal), relacionándolo con su postura pacifista y antifascista.
