How do they redefine their identities? Lesley Feracho answers these questions through a comparative look at texts by four women writers from across the Americas—Zora Neale Hurston, Julieta Campos, Carolina Maria de Jesus, and Clarice Lispector. She explores how their writing reformulates identity as an intricate connection of the historical, sociocultural, and discursive, and also reveals new understandings of feminine writing as a hybrid discourse in and of itself.SUNY series in Latin American and Iberian thought and culture.Latin American literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticismAutobiographyWomen authorsWomen in literatureSelf in literatureRace in literatureAmericaLiteraturesWomen authorsLatin American literatureWomen authorsHistory and criticism.AutobiographyWomen authors.Women in literature.Self in literature.Race in literature.860.9/9287/098Feracho Lesley1968-1806468MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958168603321Linking the Americas4355660UNINA
