Gender Perspective in the teaching of Golden Age Literature

In its last breakdown of objectives and contents among levels, the Ministry of Education does not adopt, specifically, a gender perspective when dealing with the teaching of literature in Compulsory Secondary Teaching, nevertheless it mentions the necessity of "developing supporting and tolerant attitudes with social, religious, gender and race differences". This research aims to study, widen and draw this cooperative attitude in front of these gender differences in the concrete area of teaching literature. Following these guidelines, a first approach is presented in relation to presence/absence of female writers in Golden Age Spanish Literature with the final purpose of verifing the degree in which these manuals cover the necessity of providing a plural and non-exclusive gender vision about the creative experience in the area of literature.
