Chus Pato

Résumé
María Xesús Pato Díaz (born 29 August 1955, in Ourense, Galicia), most commonly known as Chus Pato, is a Galician writer. Pato is an important figure in Galician culture: she belongs to literary groups and cultural associations, such as PEN Club and Redes Escarlata. She is a member of the Royal Galician Academy since 2016. She also participated directly in politics. Chus Pato's works go beyond the traditional concept of poetry since her writings bear signs of postmodern transgression of literary genres. She uses different text types—biography, essay, excerpts from theatre, interview, radio programs—which allows her to engage a large variety of voices that include, as well as hers, those of many other real and fictitious characters. Her works are a clear mirror of a literary commitment to ideological claims. Galician nationalism, a Marxist vision of reality, and feminist theory influence the themes she deals with. She also thinks about language as a system of symbolic creation in modern society. Her style is characterized by syncopated syntax and references to Greco-Latin mythology so that she uses language as a metaphor of immediate reality. Pato collaborates with many literary magazines, such as Festa da palabra silenciada, Luzes da Galiza, A Trabe de Ouro, etc. and she has written books (Palabra de muller, Poesía dos aléns) in collaboration with other authors. Some of her poems are also included in the anthologies Poésie en Galice aujourd’hui; Rías de tinta; Literatura de mujeres en francés, gallego e italiano; Poetry is the world’s great miracle...
