Each author traveled and wrote in different and significant moments in the history of the Latin American nations, and their texts touch upon the nature of hemispheric and European cross-cultural relations. Mujeres en transito revises the limited consideration that women's travelogues have received within the Latin American literary tradition. It demonstrates how women's commentaries on their own and other nations speak to their own engagement in the project of modern citizenship. More importantly, the act of traveling often helps female authors challenge the strictly political, legal, and geographic conceptions of nationhood and national identity articulated in canonical texts. Their improved yet marginal position in society as women, their particular reasons to travel, and the personal and symbolic connections with more than one nation or culture lead these four women to articulate a "transnational imaginary" through which they revise the categories of gender, class, modernity, and cultural homogeneity that shaped nineteenth century Latin American societies. -- Amazon.com Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 219-232) and index Notes Print version record Subject Matto de Turner, Clorinda, 1852-1909 -- Criticism and interpretation Mansilla de García, Eduarda, 1838-1892 -- Criticism and interpretation Gorriti, Juana Manuela, 1816-1892 -- Criticism and interpretation Tristan, Flora, 1803-1844 -- Criticism and interpretation SUBJECT Matto de Turner, Clorinda, 1852-1909 -- Criticism and interpretation Mansilla de García, Eduarda, 1838-1892 -- Criticism and interpretation Gorriti, Juana Manuela, 1816-1892 -- Criticism and interpretation Tristan, Flora, 1803-1844 -- Criticism and interpretation Gorriti, Juana Manuela, 1816-1892 fast Mansilla de García, Eduarda, 1838-1892 fast Matto de Turner, Clorinda, 1852-1909 fast Tristan, Flora, 1803-1844 fast Subject Women authors, Latin American -- Biography Latin American literature -- Women authors -- History and criticism LITERARY CRITICISM -- Feminist.
