This thesis discusses the poetry of the Argentine writer, Alfonsina Storni, in relation to the particular context in which she was writing. Specific bases for interpretation are set out; they include a consideration of gender topics and other relevant political and cultural issues. As Storni's work addresses a range of concerns regarding the social construction of the female body, a method of reading is required that deploys an understanding of the body as both physical and socio-cultural, allowing all of the major aspects to be treated. The type of analysis applied, corporal criticism, is often found within the social sciences but rarely employed within literature; the following study demonstrates that it is highly applicable to this field, particularly in the case of women writers, or other marginalised groups. The thesis consists of two parts; the first is an exploration of constructions of the body within various forms of discourse in early twentieth-century Argentina: institutional, popular and erudite. I document a variety of negative stereotypes, and then look at those discursive forces (such as journalism and popular theatre) which were able to oppose the restrictions imposed on women. I then examine how Storni made use of these as strategies of resistance, focusing on language and audience-reception. The second half of the thesis provides an in-depth study of the texts, tracing a clear line of literary development throughout Storni's work on both formal and thematic levels. By identifying those aspects of the poetry that can be considered innovative in relation to conventional definitions of gender and / or genre, I aim to suggest new ways of reading her work. In the conclusion, I examine the relationship between the poetry discussed and the work of contemporary women poets in Argentina, offering insights into the role of Storni's work within the larger context of Latin American poetry.

Le traitement d'abus passés des droits de la personne s'avère un sujet très épineux dans un contexte de transition démocratique récente. Doit-on pencher du côté de l'amnistie des transgresseurs, souvent invoquée comme outil permettant d'enterrer les problèmes et souffrances d'hier, ou est-il plutôt préférable de traduire les contrevenants en justice, afin d'éviter l'insatisfaction des victimes et de leurs sympathisants, ainsi que tous les problèmes qui y sont reliés? Cette thèse s'intéresse au cas de l'Argentine, pays qui a vécu les deux extrêmes de ce continuum, en tentant de déterminer si cette nation sud-américaine a connu un réinvestissement dans la cause des droits humains comparable à celui vécu par la littérature spécialisée à partir des années 1990. À cet effet, nous concentrerons notre attention sur la périodisation proposée par Thomas Wright dans son ouvrage "State Terrorism in Latin America: Chile, Argentina, and International Human Rights" en essayant de déterminer sa vraisemblance.
