	Women Characters in Latin American Literature at St. Mary's University
		At a time when Venezuelan literature was concerned with criollismo, romanticism, and naturalism, Teresa de la Parra’s Iphigenia: The diary of a young lady who wrote because she was bored (1924), burst upon the scene with its charming, literate, and unforgettable first person narrator, María Eugenia Alonso.
		Although de la Parra (Ana Teresa Sanojo, 1898-1936) invented a character she claimed was a composite of several young women she knew in Caracas to whom she wanted to give voice, the novel’s readers and critics had difficulty keeping the opinions of the narrator and the author separate.
		De la Parra brought women subjects and feminine consciousness to center stage through her depiction María Eugenia Alonso’s restricted patriarchal world and her lack of choices.

		Here in its first English translation, this accomplished 1924 novel by de la Parra, a Venezuelan, follows Maria Eugenia Alonso as she makes the rocky transition from her youth in fashionable France to adulthood in Venezuela, where women's existence is circumscribed by propriety and financial dependence.
		Parra's book seems light years ahead of time, an insightful critique of Latin machismo and oppression that makes a frontal attack on forced matrimony, organized religion, sexual mores and the domestic sphere.
		Here, Parra takes up a common enough trope--that of the orphaned young woman ripe for marriage and pursued by multiple suitors--and shatters the mold, giving her protagonist not only a voice, but a consciousness.

		The marvelous, understood as an autonomous system where nature functions with different laws and which does not negatively interfere with the logic of the world codified as real in a text, is common in all literature; nevertheless, the manner of understanding and appreciating it is particular to each era.
		The history of Partonopeus and Melior, which starts with the French Roman de Partonopeus may be an example of these changes: from stories where marvelous fantastic fairy ruled to others which prefer the marvelous which is magical or exotic.
		The second level of analysis focuses on the resemantization (in the sense of deconstruction, of reconfiguration and/or of reaffirmation) of the masculine sexual identity considering as a main theoretical base the "queer" coined by the critic David William Foster.

		Doris Sommer's essay sets forth the idea that women writers of Latin America, because of the ways they are marginalized, use the disjuncture or dislocation of signifier and signified as an ironic criticism of patriarchal society.
		Sommer seems to be saying that de la Parra and various other women writers from Latin America were deconstructionists in 1929; she sets their in opposition to that of male writers, without discussing the narrative conventions the male writers follow.
		Sylvia Molloy's essay is concerned first with the question of "who is the author?", defining de la Parra as misfit, expatriate, rich Venezuelan, bisexual and stunningly beautiful; then secondly the question of "who is the narrator?", mysterious, elusive, and a bit conspiratorial.
