Résumé anglais |
After various decades of silence, Susana Soca's return to Uruguayan literary criticism is significant due to the prevalence of her magazine La Licorne, published in two periods (Paris 1947 – Montevideo 1953), and which represents without a doubt a model of transatlantic literary relations of the mid 20th Century.if after the tragic event of her death in 1959, Susana Soca was relegated to minor status in the literary scene, it is, in part, due to the foreign tendencies and anachronistic elements that she incarnated in a moment of acute Latin-American consciousness. But Susana Soca's place in between two worlds is not limited to her activity as an editor between France and Uruguay. My hypothesis is that the return also operates in her poetry and in her essays as an act of writing that gives meaning and unity to her work. The return functions in her texts as a mechanism that allows us to understand the place in which Susana Soca is situated, not as that of a foreign-outsider, but as that of someone who returns to her origin with an estranged gaze.
