Gender and Nationalism in Colonial Cuba : The Travels of Santa Cruz y Montalvo, Condesa de Merlin
|
|
|
Nashville, TN, U.S.A.: Vanderbilt University Press, 1998. 317 pages. B/w illustrations. Index. Maria de las Mercedes Santa Cruz y Montalvo, better known as la Condesa de Merlin (1789-1852), is arguably one of Cuba's most engaging authors; yet until now her works have gone largely ignored. From the viewpoint of feminist and psychoanalytical theory. Explores the many ways in which issues of gender have contributed to Merlin's virtual absence from the canons of literature and from the discourses on Cuban national identity. Merlin's double identity as both Cuban and French is symbolic of the Cuban exiled condition, a fact taken up by contemporary exiled Cuban writers who see the countess as an alter-ego. Mendez Rodenas seeks to restore Merlin as the first woman writer in Cuban literary history to articulate a sense of national identity, as well as being Cuba's first female historian. She focuses on Merlin's travel writings because they examine such issues as slavery, independence, nationhood, the role of women, education, and local literature. Together her writings construct an alternative, gendered history of nineteenth-century Cuba that must be acknowledged as both functional and authentic.. 1st Printing. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. more information
