Description
This study examines the links between gender and politics in the work of six contemporary women writers from Argentina and Uruguay. Through detailed discussions of the texts of Luisa Valenzuela, Marta Traba, Sylvia Molloy and Reina Roffe (Argentina), and Cristina Peri Rossi and Armonia Somers (Uruguay), Geoffrey Kantaris shows how their writings engage with, and often challenge, Western theories of the construction of gender and its relation to identity politics (notably psychoanalysis and deconstruction).
