 SPRING
 What are you looking at, lover, what are you looking at?... It seems
 that something in your eyes blooms, blooms...

 He doesn't answer me... He approaches, looks at me...
 I don't know if he smiles, I don't know if he sighs...

Cantando a dos poetisas: Ángela Figuera Aymerich y Carmen Conde: Recital Various

120 anniversary of the birth of Ángela Figuera Aymerich and 115 anniversary of the birth of Carmen Conde

The two poets had many things in common: they were very close in age, they worked in the field of education, they suffered the consequences of the civil war, having to rebuild their lives from scratch, and they stood in defense of freedoms and rights. of the woman. Both poets professed great friendship, which began with the sending by Angela of her first publication, Woman of clay, with a significant dedication, which makes explicit a statement of conscience, if not feminist, yes of a woman aware of her condition; a commitment that would later be endorsed in 1950 in one of Ángela's fundamental poems: “Impertinent exhortation to my sister poets”, dedicated, and it is not by chance, to her friend: “To Carmen Conde, woman and poet, another woman. Madrid, May, 1948 ”.

They maintained collaboration in the literary field, and Carmen published Angela's poems both in her broadcasts on Radio Nacional de España and in the different publications in which she collaborated. Fear of censorship by Ángela Figuera Aymerich led to what is considered her best work, Cruel Beauty, prefaced by León Felipe, was published in Mexico through the management of the writer Max Aub, obtaining the New Spain Prize, awarded by the Union of Spanish Intellectuals of that country. Carmen Conde was the first Spanish woman to access a position at the Royal Spanish Academy, she was a National Poetry Prize winner and one of the most prolific voices in Spanish poetry, not only of the 20th century but of all time. In short, two poets and two women ahead of the difficult times in which they had to live.
