RESUMEN
Los inicios del siglo XX fueron el escenario de las primeras movilizaciones feministas en Chile, que desembocan en 1949 en la obtención del voto femenino. Un número importante de las pioneras en la lucha por los derechos civiles y políticos de la mujer fueron escritoras, aunándose su labor literaria con reivindicaciones políticas en figurase como Inés Echeverría de Larraín (Iris), Delia Rojas (Delie Rouge), Elvira Santa Cruz Ossa (Roxane), Amanda Labarca y la más joven Marta Vergara. En el presente artículo se revisa una serie de textos de las autoras nombradas, a fin de dilucidar la comprensión que desplegaran acerca de la escritura, el ser mujer y el feminismo. En el análisis se evidenciarán las principales formas discursivas en que estas categorías son pensadas, así como las tensiones y contradicciones que las atraviesan, en una arena simbólica que recién comienza a ensayar sus posibilidades de significación.
Palabras clave: Feminismo en Chile, femineidad, género, escritura de mujeres.
ABSTRACT The first decades of the 20th century witnessed the first feminist mobilizations in Chile, which culminated in obtaining the feminine vote in 1949. Pioneering figures in the fight for civil and political rights of women were writers such as Inés Echeverría de Larraín (Iris), Delia Rojas (Delie Rouge), Elvira Santa Cruz Ossa (Roxane), Amanda Labarca and the younger Marta Vergara, who combined their literary work with political demands. The present article analyzes a series of texts written by these authors, in an effort to elucidate the understanding of their literary activity, as well as the status of being a woman and a feminist. The principal discursive forms in which these categories are conceived, as well as their tensions and contradictions will be reviewed. These texts make up a symbolic arena where the possibilities of meanings are rehearsed. Keywords: Feminism in Chile, femininity, gender, women’s writing.
