O deslocamento feminino no romance contemporâneo

Abstract

This paper takes up the reflection of gender identity in novels by Lya Luft and Helena Parente Cunha, by means of gender studies. It starts with a feminist conception for the analysis of parody of women's movement as a form of resistance to the patriarchy. This challenge is suggested by the metaphor of the traditional mother's death in these authors’ fiction. Methodologically, the concepts of parody, by Hutcheon, and displacement of gender, by Butler, will be explored.
