Rewriting Womanhood
Feminism, Subjectivity, and the Angel of the House in the Latin American Novel, 1887–1903
Samenvatting
An historical and theoretical literary study of three Latin American women writers, Refugio Barragán of Mexico, Mercedes Cabello de Carbonera of Peru, and Ana Roqué of Puerto Rico. Examines how these novelists subversively rewrote womanhood vis à vis the prescribed comportment for women during a conservative era.
