Rosario Ferre: A Search for Identity

By Suzanne S. Hintz

During the last three decades there have been many literary theorists who have written about Latin American feminist literary criticism, just as there have been many Latin American feminist authors. Puerto Rican born Rosario Ferr is unique among them in that she has written many critical articles about the theoretical aspects of feminist criticism as well as feminist literature. Ferr has created a highly personal and comprehensive approach to feminist literature and its criticism which is codified in this study. This analysis applies the Ferr an theory of feminist literary criticism to her own prose, in works such as Maldito amor, Papeles de Pandora, Las dos Venecias, and her English translations, Sweet Diamond Dust and The Youngest Doll.
