Gómez Jiménez, Eva María
Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923) is considered one of the best and most representative British writers of short fiction. Historically speaking, it is acknowledged that she belonged to the modernist era, and, consequently, to my knowledge, every study that has been published on her work has been carried out from a modernist approach. Gerardo Rodríguez Salas is the first scholar to develop a monographic study in which Mansfield is analyzed from a new perspective; he claims that Mansfield is a modernist writer who anticipated the postmodernist movement. This he does on the strength of certain features that prominently belong to this later literary period.
Review of E. E. Cummings' Erotic PoemsGómez Jiménez, Eva Maríahttps://hdl.handle.net/10481/859572023-12-01T08:13:45ZReview of E. E. Cummings' Erotic Poems

The latest compilation of Cummings material is entitled Erotic Poems, published in February 2010 by W. W. Norton. Its editor is George James Firmage, who was also responsible for such important books as E. E. Cum-mings: A Bibliography (1960), E. E. Cummings: A Miscellany Revised (1967), and especially the centennial edition of Cummings’ Complete Po-ems (1994), the definitive edition of Cummings’ poetic material. The book under review is the first compilation of Cummings’ erotic poems, and it publishes some of Cummings’ erotic drawings as well. Previously, only Richard Kostelanetz’s AnOther E. E. Cummings (1998) collected together a group of twenty eight erotic poems. In this case, the editor arranged other groups of poems under various headings, so besides “Erotic Poetry,” we also find sections labeled “Language Experiments,” “Texts Set to Music,” and “Self-Prefaces,” among others. Because of this, the nature of Erotic Poems is completely new for those who are interested on the works by the American author.
