Abstract
SOLER-QUILEZ, Guillermo. Cómics y álbumes ilustrados sobre Federico García Lorca: obra y vida ¿gay?. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2023, n.123, pp.203-217. Epub June 06, 2023. ISSN 1853-3523. http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi123.4412.
This paper intends to analyse different biographic illustrated books for children and young readers who show the life of Federico Garcia Lorca: on one hand, picture books by Diaz Plaza and Bayes, Navarro and Vila; López Narváez and Rodríguez,Gibson and Zavala and Sánchez and Casas; on the other hand, graphic novels by: Hernández and El Torres, Javierre and Cabrera, Esquembre, Gibson and Palomo and Martín Segarra. The target of this work consists of analysing how the homosexuality of the poet has been portrayed in order to highlight the didactic possibilities to introduce and familiarize not only the relevant of Federico Garcia Lorca, but also the controversial topic of homosexuality not only in primary lessons, but also in secondary schools. Despite legislative progress related with LGBTQ rights, sexuality is still silenced considered a taboo, for this reason queer pedagogy defends the necessity of introducing in the everyday lessons the reality of LGTBQ people. Learning about Lorca, includying his homosexuality provides the possibility of takle queer culture. This ensures that some stereotypes can be questioned.
