DESCRIPTION

Performatividades transculturales de viajeras mexicanas
Escritora, no hay camino. explores Mexican travel literature -from early nineteenth-century publications to the contemporary era- to reveal how the experiences of six women writers reconfigured perceptions of themselves and the foreign.From a feminist and transcultural critique, this book delves into how Laura Méndez de Cuenca, Elena Garro, Rosario Castellanos, María Luisa Puga, Esther Seligson and Myriam Moscona confront cultural normativity in their narratives, drawing on their cultural interactions in Spain, Germany, Kenya, England, Israel and Bulgaria, among other countries.The cross-cultural performativities studied here allow us to analyse how the authors incorporate categories such as sex, gender, class, nationality and ethnicity in their works. The comparative chapters explore themes such as transatlantic intellectual exchanges, the border identities' critique of normativity, and the relationship of genealogy to literary and cultural re-appropriations. This book offers an analytical insight into how Mexican women writers have contributed to travel literature by subverting and reconfiguring their identity and relationship to the world.Escritora, no hay camino. explora la literatura de viaje mexicana -desde las primeras publicaciones del siglo XIX hasta la época contemporánea- para revelar cómo las experiencias de seis escritoras reconfiguraron percepciones sobre sí mismas y lo extranjero.Desde una crítica feminista y transcultural, el libro profundiza en cómo Laura Méndez de Cuenca, Elena Garro, Rosario Castellanos, María Luisa Puga, Esther Seligson y Myriam Moscona enfrentan las normatividades culturales en sus relatos, a partir de sus interacciones culturales en España, Alemania, Kenia, Inglaterra, Israel y Bulgaria, entre otros países.Las performatividades transculturales que aquí se estudian permiten analizar cómo las autoras incorporan categorías como sexo, género, clase social, nacionalidad y etnicidad en sus obras. En los capítulos comparativos se exploran temas como los intercambios intelectuales transatlánticos, la crítica a las normatividades de las identidades fronterizas y la relación de la genealogía con las reapropiaciones literarias y culturales. Este libro ofrece una mirada analítica para comprender cómo las escritoras mexicanas han contribuido a la literatura de viaje, subvirtiendo y reconfigurando tanto su identidad como su relación con el mundo.
