- 摘要: "Reading these essayists is essential for gaining an understanding of Latin American literature and culture. Work focuses on feminine perspective, and in doing so, proposes a reinterpretation of the history of the genre. Includes analyses of better-known women writers: Clorinda Matto de Turner, Gabriela Mistral, Alfonsina Storni, Magda Portal, Eduarda Mansilla, Victoria Ocampo, and Rosario Ferré. Major contribution to both the study of the essay and to the work of the women included. Work could have benefitted from the inclusion of less-frequently studied women, since the classic feminist list is becoming repetitive, and, as with work on boom writers, it has nearly reached the point of exhaustion"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

Latin American women have long written essays on topics ranging from gender identity and the female experience to social injustice, political oppression, lack of educational opportunities, and the need for female solidarity in a patriarchal environment. But this rich vein of writing has often been ignored and is rarely studied. This volume of twenty-one original studies by noted experts in Latin American literature seeks to recover and celebrate the accomplishments of Latin American women essayists. Taking a variety of critical approaches, the authors look at the way women writers have interpreted the essay genre, molded it to their expression, and created an intellectual tradition of their own. Some of the writers they treat are Flora Tristan, Gertrudis Gomez de Avellaneda, Clorinda Matto de Turner, Victoria Ocampo, Alfonsina Storni, Rosario Ferre, Christina Peri Rossi, and Elena Poniatowska. This book is the first of a two-volume project that will reexamine the Latin American essay from a feminist perspective. The second volume, also edited by Doris Meyer, will contain thirty-six essays in translation by twenty-two women authors.
