Abstract

This paper delves into the processes of framing and mediating a space by a specific emotional community and draws attention to their importance when approaching Rosalía Castro’s En las orillas del Sar. In this light, a particular place (Torres de Lestrobe) is examined and highlighted as a key element that not only triggered Castro’s memory and affect as a writer but also was crucial in shaping the structure of En las orillas del Sar. The significance of Torres de Lestrobe is then put in relation to Rosalía’s ideology and affect, and their connections with the literary field analyzed.
