Item El mensaje regeneracionista de Emma de la Barra: Stella un best-seller fin de siglo(Latin American Studies Program, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, 2011-06-30) Torres-Pou, JoanStella, published in 1905 by Emma de la Barra, also known as César Duáyen, was an unquestionable best-seller and the most important Argentine novel of the turn-of-the-century. However, critics have paid little attention to the text, being studied only recently by those interested in Spanish-American women writer’s production. From a multidisciplinary approach, my article studies Stella in the context of Argentine Regeneracionismo, it analyzes the different political ideas expressed in the novel and explores the reasons behind its incredible success.
