A few weeks ago we discussed multiple ways of reacting and showing interest in English. Today I’d like to elaborate on this topic.

Reacting and showing interest in English 2

Mañana 8 de marzo es el Día de La Mujer, por lo que, al igual que el año pasado, quería grabar un episodio sobre mujeres. Este episodio he elegido a las sinsombrero, que fueron un grupo de artistas contemporáneas a los escritores de la generación del 27, pero que por el hecho de ser mujeres han sido un poco olvidadas. ¡Hasta ahora! En el episodio de hoy te cuento el contexto social de la época, las diferentes etapas históricas por las que pasaron estas mujeres, como las afectó y por qué son conocidas como las sinsombrero. Además, menciono algunas de ellas, con su historia, características y un par de obras.

Espero que, a pesar de ser un episodio un poco diferente, lo disfrutes y lo encuentres interesante. Si es así, no te olvides de dejar a este podcast una valoración. Y, por favor, si conoces a alguien que esté estudiando espanol, ¡comparte el episodio con ellos!
