| Summary: | Abstract: Susan Hale (1833-1910) was a prolific c North-American writer whose work is unknown in Spain due, among other reasons, to the lack of translations into Spanish. The present work tries to make this woman’s life and literary production known by means of her travel writing entitled A Family Flight Through Spain (1883). Throughout this account we find out a woman who sometimes transgresses and sometimes succumbs to the discursive limits of her time. Therefore, her work is analyzed from the approaches of the postcolonial and feminist theory.
Resumen: La norteamericana Susan Hale (1833-1910) fue una prolífica escritora cuya obra sin embargo es desconocida en España debido, entre otras razones, a la falta de traducciones al español. Este trabajo pretende dar a conocer una parte de su vida y de su obra literaria a partir de su relato de viaje A Family Flight Through Spain (1883). En él descubrimos a una mujer que a veces transgrede y a veces sucumbe a los límites discursivos de su tiempo, de ahí que se analice su obra desde los planteamientos de la teoría postcolonial y feminista. |
