Abstract

ADAO, Deolinda M.. The Multiplicity of Self: Construction of feminine identity in Maria Isabel Barreno. Faces de Eva. Estudos sobre a Mulher [online]. 2018, n.39, pp.27-40. ISSN 0874-6885.

This article aims to identify processes of feminine identity in the work of Maria Isabel Barreno. Our reading will be guided by the theoretical work of J.L. Austin, further developed by John Searle and Judith Butler. Our work will address traditional feminine spaces and will consider the female body as the occupied space over which self-identity must be constructed.

Keywords : Identity construction; agency; body; speech-act theory.
