From Intimist Poetry To The Vanguard: The Lyrical Subject And The City In Alfonsina Storni S Languidez (1920), Mundo De Siete Pozos (1934) And Mascarilla Y Trebol (1938).

The study of this subject/city relation reveals a lyrical subject interested in the city as a space in which practices of various kinds—cultural, social, economic and political—coincide. Her sensibility permits a perception of the misery, labor exploitation, discrimination, anonymity and loneliness that rule in the city as such. However, the lyrical subject inserts and represents the city of Buenos Aires itself, obliquely, through the antisonnet, a discursive strategy that allows her to immerse herself fully in the vanguard movement.
