These novels and their representations of women and hybrid identities are studied by historically contextualizing the texts and their fictive content, and by viewing them through the perspectives of Cuban and American mulatez, tropicalization, cultural hybridity, and feminist critique. 2004-07-26 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1090422675 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1090422675 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
