In this book, Sabrina Siqueira and Cristiane Antunes analyse the representation of women in the short stories that make up Dubliners (1914), by Irish writer James Joyce, and in the short story "Rosa Schwarzer Comes Back to Life", from the book Exemplary Suicides (1991), by Spanish writer Enrique Vila-Matas. Taking into account the aesthetic and cultural specificities of each writer's historical period, the authors aim to highlight the literary devices used by them to compose their female characters and the effects of these processes on the construction of the representation of the female figure in literature.
