Abstract
This article analyzes the development of an Afro-Costa Rican feminist thought in the literary sphere. From a panoramic vision, it focuses on the main aesthetic and discursive features of a set of texts women wrote from the start of the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century. The analysis has been organized into four writing facets that start with providing unknown texts (identified in a precious archival work) and then delve into more recent unpublished and published poetic works. It is argued that the intellectual concerns of Afro-Costa Rican female writers have been related to transgenerational struggles of socio-cultural, linguistic, political, and historical vindication, opening public debates from different intersectional perspectives, which have long been underestimated in Costa Rica.

N2 - Este artículo analiza el desarrollo del pensamiento afrofeminista costarricense a partir del ámbito literario. Con una visión panorámica, la presente propuesta se centra en las principales líneas estético-discursivas de un conjunto de textos escritos por mujeres desde comienzos del siglo XX hasta principios del siglo XXI. El análisis está organizado en cuatro facetas escriturales que parten de la incorporación de textos desconocidos (identificados en un trabajo previo de estudio de archivo con periódicos) para después adentrarse en obras poéticas más recientes, tanto inéditas como publicadas. Se argumenta que las inquietudes intelectuales de las escritoras afrocostarricenses han estado relacionadas con luchas transgeneracionales y glocales de reivindicación sociocultural, lingüística, política e histórica, abriendo debates públicos desde diferentes perspectivas interseccionales, que han sido invisibilizadas en Costa Rica.This article analyzes the development of an Afro-Costa Rican feminist thought in the literary sphere.
