Passionate Subjects/split Subjects in Twentieth-century Literature in Chile
Throughout the literary imaginaries of the twentieth century there is a reiteration of an authoritarian patriarchal pattern that permeates the social arena as well as the female subject, revealing the contradictions of the Chilean modernity/modernization process. The nation appears invariably determined by semi-feudal and semi-modern structures as well as split female modern subjects. Noticing this has led the author to write this book and investigate specifically the ways the discourse of modernity conflicts with the marriage contract in the construction of feminine subjectivity. Marriage is one of the modern protocols that resolve sexual difference through a pact that proclaims male protection in exchange for female obedience. Subordination of difference becomes the overarching feature guiding an incomplete modernity and its attainment in a hierarchical society.

Redes, alianzas y afinidades. Mujeres y escritura en América Latina. Homenaje a Montserrat Ordóñez (1941-2011)
Este libro reúne los resultados de investigación presentados en el simposio Redes, alianzas y afinidades: escritura de mujeres en América Latina, siglos xix y xx (Bogotá, Universidad de los Andes, 2 a 4 de noviembre de 2011), organizado por la Universidad de los Andes y la Universidad de Chile y coordinado por las compiladoras.1 El simposio fue organizado en homenaje a la escritora colombiana Montserrat Ordóñez (1941-2001), investigadora, escritora, poeta, traductora y editora que, como las mujeres reunidas en esta publicación, supo que el lugar de las mujeres en la escritura se elabora, sostiene y expande sobre un gran tejido de redes que hacen posible ese lugar y su sentido. Este libro quiere que la red académica que hizo posible la realización del simposio se conserve en el tiempo, así como contribuir al fortalecimiento de la red de estudios latinoamericanos, en particular los literarios y de género.
Leer la pobreza en América Latina
La velocidad que busca esta escritura es la velocidad de la pobreza, la dromopenia. Porque esta velocidad es siempre múltiple,siempre cambiante. Muchas otras velocidades–globalizantes, postmodernas, postnacionales, multitudinarias, político-literarias– la territorializan y desterritorializan. Este ensayo recorre las velocidades de la pobreza, enfrentado y cruzando las otras, y al hacerlo se relaciona con el poder mismo. Este ensayo es uno de los más lúcidos estudios de principios del 2000 que se ha hecho a nuestra realidad a través de la literatura.
