Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Contrast this with examples of pre-Civil war female Bildungsroman, including Ernestina de Champourcin's (1936) innocent, somewhat naïvely psychoanalytical La casa de enfrente, with its love-obsessed and self-destructive protagonist, and Concha Espina's La rosa de los vientos (1925). Post-Franco writers, notably Esther Tusquets in El mismo mar de todos los veranos (1978), clearly follow in the path drawn by these earlier generations as they acknowledge the importance that maturation novels have had in their own formation. Using this study as a springboard, many future writers, critics, and readers are sure to acknowledge the presence, pertinence, and persistence of the Bildungsroman in Spanish women's writing.
