Summary/Abstract: Talking about women and literature falls under the incidence of a double analysis: the female character as an object of representation and the female character as a subject of literary writing. This point of the work arises from an attempt to locate a liminal space, a merciful edge and to discover those female voices that have been aesthetically validated. Going beyond the doctrinal wake of militant feminism, we must integrate into our approach the possibility that literature written by women bears the imprint of gender. The interest in women's literature is fueled by a righteous impulse escorted by a kind of moral duty to recover it. Writing is perhaps the place where that spasm of intensive revolt acts the most: especially when the word, subjectivity and representation detach their ideological and cultural registers to the point of the outbreak of the linguistic unity that links meaning to the discursive economy of the sentence.
