What literary writing is, what it is like to work upon the material for composition that derives from a fragmented world and what the status of the poet is are some of the questions Modernist literature poses to undermine the representation modes of Modern Realism, whose most precious form is the novel, which in England consolidates in the 18th century. Orlando: A Biography, by Virginia Woolf, echoes these arguments by bestowing upon her prose the categories of sex and gender. This literary proposal consists in destabilizing the prosaic linearity of the novel and endowing it with a semiotic language, suggestive in nature and traditionally associated with women, which subverts the marginal space where they have been displaced and turns it into a fertile ground for writing.   El panorama desolador que sucede a la Primera Guerra Mundial interpela diversas prácticas humanas y la literatura no es la excepción. En qué consiste la escritura literaria, cómo se trabaja sobre los materiales que provienen de un mundo fragmentado y cuál es el estatuto del poeta son algunos de los interrogantes que recoge el Modernismo anglosajón para socavar los modos de representación del Realismo moderno, entre cuyas formas predilectas se encuentra la novela que en Inglaterra se afianza en el siglo XVIII. Orlando: A Biography, de Virginia Woolf, hace eco de estas preguntas confiriéndole un sello particular a su prosa: la cuestión del sexo y el género. Su propuesta consiste en minar la linealidad prosaica de la novela e imprimir en ella un lenguaje semiótico, inscripto en el ámbito de lo sugerido y tradicionalmente asociado a la mujer, subvirtiendo así el espacio marginal al que se la relega al convertirlo en un locus fértil para la escritura. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/interlitteras/article/view/7138 10.34096/interlitteras.n1.7225 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/interlitteras/article/view/7138/6385 Inter Litteras; Núm. 1 (2019); 130-147 2683-9695 0328-8935 Modernidad Realismo Modernismo novela género Modernity Realism Modernism Novel Gender Orlando: A Biography, by Virginia Woolf: Life and Death of Modern Novel Orlando: A Biography, de Virginia Woolf: vida y muerte de la novela moderna info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=interlit&d=7138_oai
