Abstract

In the classroom of Spanish as a foreign language, poetry is one of the most useful tools avai­lable to the teacher in the teaching-learning process of the target language. On the one hand, poems are short literary texts, which assume a unit of complete meaning and offer an immense corpus of syntactic constructions, lexical elements and semantic multiplicity. On the other hand, they contain cultural codes that favour the learning of the Spanish environment. This paper presents a didactic proposal directed to the advanced level of the Official Schools of Languages, following a poem by Clara Janés. Starting from the poem, a series of activities of linguistic deepening and reading comprehension are presented, as well as initiatives to promote reading. Similarly, it is intended to bring the figure of Clara Janés to the students of Spanish as a foreign language, one of the most renowned representatives of contemporary Spanish poetry.
