HOUVENAGHEL, Eugenia Helena. Rosa Chacel’s Mexican Network captured in her correspondence with Tomás Segovia, Inés Arredondo, and Concha de Albornoz, 1954-1972. Lit. mex [online]. 2023, vol.34, n.2, pp.25-57.  Epub 05-Abr-2024. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.2023.34.2/0023s01x7922.

After having explored the possibilities and limits of private correspondence to analyze the intellectual networks of exiles, this study reconstructs Rosa Chacel’s Mexican network on the basis of a set of letters exchanged in the period of 1954 to 1972 between Tomás Segovia, Inés Arredondo and Rosa Chacel. Our analysis is situated at the interdisciplinary intersection between network analysis, literary studies, and historical inquiry. From the point of view of network analysis, we identify the different actors in Chacel’s Mexican network, clarify its evolution, and we situate the Mexican contacts in the broader context of the transnational network built by Chacel during exile. With respect to the content and literary significance of these relationships, we delve into the functioning of Chacel’s Mexican network and highlight that it associates work and friendship by offering a large number of opportunities for professional collaboration in a warm and friendly family environment.
