Abstract
The continuing scarcity of literary studies of the Franco period with methodological approaches linked to cultural studies gives rise to multiple areas of research that have attracted little attention from hispanists.;Undoubtedly one of the most important is that large and heterogeneous cultural group of young anti-Francoists located in Barcelona that the critic Joan de Sagarra dubbed the gauche divine. In just a few years they gained access to the hegemony in the field of cultural production, through the control of new publishing houses and their roles as critics, editors, anthologists or translators, i.e. they became cultural mediators of the foreign modernity in the latter stages of the Francoist regime. Their influence on the emergence of the Latin American boom; the imitation of new habits and cultural trends that were emerging in France, Italy or the United States; their unique, frivolous and playful lifestyle and the media coverage that they provoked; wove a new fabric of taste in the literary field; without which it would be impossible to conceive of the cultural evolution of the following years in Spain.
