Cuerpo e imaginación: variaciones de fuga en algunos personajes femeninos en la literatura

Abstract

From the different meanings of the word fuga and the idea held by Federici about the feminine body as a limit, a passage able to develop social, cultural, intellectual functions, in addition to being support of a system that takes advantage of her work, she proposes to consider the multiple escape strategies that the woman sketches out to overcome and distort the place she was held for centuries. Through various female characters from different authors it will be traced an itinerary that goes from the borders of the female body to the unattainable end of her imagination in a display that includes motives such as adventure without direction, sexuality, violence, death and writing and art as an instrument of realization.
