The worth of women: Hispanic women's responses to the Early Modern querelle des femmes

这个项目考察了西班牙裔女性作家对女性问题的反应，揭示了殖民母体中剥削女性、积累资本和按性别传播权力之间的联系。通过思考西班牙裔女性的文学声音如何以及为什么能够挑战一种起初似乎一致反对女性表达和解放的文化，该项目将探索早期现代女性作家挑战男性至上观念、试图以更有利的术语改写女性身份并为她们的文本开辟智力空间的方式。

This project examines Hispanic female authors' responses to the querelle des femmes, unpicking the links between the exploitation of women, the accumulation of capital and the gendered dissemination of power within a colonial matrix. By considering how and why Hispanic women's literary voices were able to contest what, at first, may appear to have been a culture uniformly adverse to women's expression and emancipation, this project will probe the ways in which Early Modern female authors challenged the notion of male supremacy, attempted to rewrite the female identity in more favourable terms and carved out intellectual spaces for their texts.
