| Summary: | In the collection of poems Babel Barbara (1991), the Uruguayan writer Cristina Peri Rossi undertakes a search for the archetypal and original woman, before the patriarchal culture. For this, the author proposes the construction of a feminine symbolic language opposed to phallogocentric logic. In our work, we intend to analyze how the author reconstructs a primordial subjectivity, centered on the feminine, in opposition to Lacan's theories, which denies to the feminine any ontological protagonism. For this, we will count on the support of the critical studies of Luce Irigaray (1985, 1992, 1994) and Cixous (1995), as well as the theorizations of Severo Sarduy (1978) on the neo-baroque.
