Abstract

With this note, we intend to make a first approximation to the impact that the lack of translations of English-speaking science fiction female authors has on the publishing market and the consideration of those same authors in the history of this literary genre in our country. For this, we will be make a brief approximation to the editorial situation and a comparative sampling of the translations that have been made of the works of the different female and male authors that have been awarded with the Hugo prize, considered
one of the most relevant in the genre of science fiction.
