Book The Imaginary in the Writing of Latin American Author Amanda Labarca Hubertson  1886 1975

Download or read book The Imaginary in the Writing of Latin American Author Amanda Labarca Hubertson 1886 1975 written by Sandra M. Boschetto-Sandoval and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thematic study is the only in-depth investigation into the fictional and testimonial literature of Amanda Labarca Hubertson, Chilean educator, reformer, and promoter of women's rights. These imaginary writings include such little-known works as her semi-autobiographical novel, En tierras extranas (1915), the short novel, La lampara maravillosa (1921), the collection of short stories entitled Cuentos a mi senor, the testimonial Meditaciones and Meditaciones breves (1928-1931), and the marginal journal fragments, Desvelos en el alba (1945). A preliminary chapter also addresses the controversy surrounding her published literary thesis, La novela castellana de hoi [sic, 1906]. The study corrects some interpretive errors regarding earlier scholarship on Labarca's perceived feminist writings by examining the sexual (gendered) complexities that imprint themselves in Labarca's fictional work and literary criticism.

A prescription for action is containedin the tercets. Included among these are luminaries such as Pablo Neruda and Nikos Kazantzakis. THe sonnets' most unique feature is their deliberatly cryptic nature: each poem is an erudite riddle. without through and ardous investigation of a term's symbolic, intertextual and linguistic complexity, the readers understanding of the sonnets is hindered. This guide decodes their formal complexity, investigating form, imagery, language and themes.
