South American Independence: Gender, Politics, Text

Couverture
Liverpool University Press, 1 janv. 2006 - 321 pages
The struggles for independence in Latin America during the first half of the nineteenth century were accompanied by a wide-ranging debate about political rights, nationality and citizenship. In South American Independence, Catherine Davies, Claire Brewster and Hilary Owen investigate the
neglected role of gender in that discussion. Examining women writers from Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, the book traces the contradictions inherent in revolutionary movements that, while arguing for the rights of all, remained ambivalent, at best, about the place of women. Through
studies of both published and unpublished writings, South American Independence reveals the complex role of women in shaping the vexed ideologies of independence.
