Pujol, Eve.

Knowledge, gender, and power in the contemporary Mexican narrative. - 280 p.

Adviser: Guido Podesta.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2007.

This dissertation studies the production of knowledge and its relationship to gender and power in contemporary Mexican narrative. Since the last decades of the twentieth century, disciplines in the humanities have questioned the ways in which knowledge has been constructed, produced and circulated and debunked notions of reason, objectivity, neutrality and autonomy promulgated by the Enlightenment. Furthermore, they have underscored the contextual nature of knowledge by stressing the significant role that sex, social class, ethnicity, race, cultural background and political affiliation, have played in knowledge production.

Since the last decades of the twentieth century, disciplines in the humanities have questioned the ways in which knowledge has been constructed, produced and circulated and debunked notions of reason, objectivity, neutrality and autonomy promulgated by the Enlightenment.

520 $a My project on Mexican novels participates in the discussion regarding knowledge from a feminist perspective, and its emphasis on the connection between sexuality, gender and power. In fact, feminist criticism has shown that what has been defined as legitimate knowledge is a social construction articulated by predominantly white, heterosexual and educated males. Following these approaches, this dissertation critically reviews commonly held conceptions regarding knowledge in the fields of philosophy, epistemology and sciences which affect women in their identity construction, relation to family and community, and social practices. More importantly, it explores the multiple ways women acquire, evaluate, and de/legitimize their knowledges and define their own identity and social roles.
