Abstract:
Abstract: The paper discusses three works written by Sandra Cisneros, namely Woman Hollering Creek, The House on Mango Street and Caramelo, from the point of view of women’s humor. With the help of these works, it is argued that Cisneros uses Latina humor in order to highlight intersectional problems concerning her identity and to reveal important facts and features about/of Latino/a existence. The point is made that Cisneros uses comedy and humor to redeem the pain and suffering through laughter instead of utilizing the tragic mode of artistic expression, hence she is able to secure survival and solutions to problems instead of a tragic wallowing in negativity (which interpretive way could also have validity concerning the occurrences which are narrated).

Abstract:
O campo dos estudos culturais/literários foca na identificação dos fenômenos responsáveis pela marginalização/subalternização dos sujeitos. Assim, a análise das ondas do movimento feminista através dos olhos da literatura torna possível uma maior aproximação da sociedade perante os fatos que ocorreram e ocorrem no mundo, no intuito de que a luta contra a desigualdade e o patriarcalismo perpetue-se e torna-se uma realidade cada vez mais tangível. O objetivo deste artigo é contextualizar as ondas feministas através da análise de dois contos: “The Yellow Wallpaper” da autora Charlotte Perkins Gilman, publicado originalmente em 1892 e “Woman Hollering Creek” da escritora Sandra Cisneros, publicado em 1991. Para isso, fundamentamos esta pesquisa principalmente com os trabalhos de Pinto (2010), Devereux (2014), Anzaldua (1987), Bittencourt (2015), Walter (2015) e Saffioti (1986) e percebemos que os quase 100 anos que separam as duas histórias foram marcados por diversas conquistas da agenda feminista. Através das ondas se tornou possível materializar a opressão vivida pelas mulheres e a literatura mostrou-se como um excelente guia para ilustrar de forma clara esse percurso. Uma vez que “The Yellow Wallpaper” e “Woman Hollering Creek” representam bem os dois momentos e discursos da primeira e terceira ondas respectivamente.

Abstract:
Apart from referring to a geographical or physical border, the notion of frontera has also become a metaphorical or psychological construct which represents any situation of contrast, such as belonging to two different national, cultural or linguistic communities. Latino writers in the United States live and write on the frontera. The coming together of two cultures forges a new hybrid identity which fights against essentialism and homogenization. This hybrid identity is reflected in these writers’ language, a border tongue constantly switching from English to Spanish. Sandra Cisneros is one of those Latina writers who resort to code-switching as an identity hallmark. By introducing Spanish words, phrases or syntactic constructions into her English texts, Cisneros tries to evoke the feeling of inhabiting two worlds which can be conflicting and complementary at the same time. Departing from the notion of frontera, several translations of Cisneros’s works are analysed, paying special attention to those aspects related to identity and language. Particularly, I focus on the Mexican Spanish, Galician and Catalan versions of The House on Mango Street, the translation of Woman Hollering Creek into Mexican Spanish, the Catalan versions of several short stories from Woman Hollering Creek and the Galician translation of Loose Woman. In all the analysed versions, the translators use strategies which reflect the border identity present in the source text, such as the resource to code-switching and typographical markers or the use of calques and other borrowings, dialectalisms, and non-standard vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar.

Abstract:
Este artículo enfoca el multilingüismo en la narrativa de la autora chicana Sandra Cisneros. Se analiza de qué manera el español aparece en The House on Mango Street (1984), Woman Hollering Creek (1991) y Caramelo or Puro Cuento (2002). Hay una evolución importante que va de una casi ausencia del español en la primera obra a una presencia mucho más destacada en la última. Caramelo se distingue por los múltiples cambios de código y una gran variedad de estrategias de autotraducción. Esta evolución lingüística refleja la difícil construcción de identidad en una autora que escribe entre dos culturas.

Abstract:
Este artigo utiliza experiências penosas da protagonista de “Woman Hollering Creek” (uma mulher latina sem acesso à língua inglesa, vítima de violência doméstica em uma comunidade chicana no Texas, literariamente comparada à mítica figura de A Chorona) como ilustração para uma reflexão sobre feminicídio na América Latina, mais especificamente no México e no Brasil. Assim sendo, a leitura ressalta o papel da telenovela como elemento midiático propulsor para a idealização do amor e o sonho de prosperidade nos EUA (American Dream); valores estes que, em nome do amor e da família heteronormativa, relegam a mulher à domesticidade, afastando-a de práticas intelectuais e do mercado de trabalho. Intensificando o olhar feminista sobre as peculiaridades da mulher latina, o texto se volta para tópicos pertinentes à Teoria Pós-colonial, e até mesmo o Feminismo Pós-colonial, com destaque para a identidade marginalizada e em trânsito, resistência cultural e interculturalidade, a intraduzibilidade linguístico-cultural bem como a prática diaspórica com vistas para melhor qualidade de vida. Considerando que a representação do inverossímil também se encontra no limiar do anglicismo e da hispanidade, o texto mostrará como leituras sobre o Fantástico, o Realismo Mágico e o Gótico Pós-colonial reforçam a adoção da figura folclórica da chorona no México como ícone de resistência, subserviência e sofrimento relegados ao corpo feminino graças às estruturas de sociedades patriarcais na América Latina.

Abstract:
This essay focuses on “Never Marry a Mexican”, a short story that features the core themes of the collection "Woman Hollering Creek and other stories". The analysis of Clemencia, as well as the comparison to other two characters from the collection, demonstrates how the complex identities in the book imply a number of sub-identities and labels interacting with each other; all forms of love represent another vital element in the process. It also shows how most female characters are built upon models originating from Mexican folklore.

Abstract:
My thesis proposes a theory of relational identity development in Chicana literature. Gloria Anzaldua's Borderlands/La Frontera offers an interpretation of Chicana identity that is largely based on historical models and mythology, which many scholars have found useful in interpreting Chicana literature. However, I contend that another text, Sandra Cisneros's The House on Mango Street, not only illustrates the need for an alternative paradigm for considering identity development, but in fact offers such an alternative. I argue that Cisneros shows a model for relational identity development, wherein the individual develops in the context of her community and is not determined solely by elements of myth or genealogy. In questioning the historical paradigm of identity development, I examine three key aspects associated with Chicana identity development: gender, home, and language. Employing the theories of Édouard Glissant, I discuss how individual identity development is better understood in terms of relationships and experience rather than historical models. For Chicanas, the roles of women have largely been interpreted as predetermined, set by the mythic figures La Malinche and La Virgen de Guadalupe. However, Cisneros's work shows that this historical tradition is less fruitful in understanding identity than recognizing individuals' experience in context of their relationships. With this communal understanding established, I question the common associations of home and Chicana identity. I argue that Cisneros challenges our very concept of home as she engages and counters the notions of theorist Gaston Bachelard. The idea of a house is metaphorical, becoming a space of communal belonging rather than a physical structure to separate individuals. Finally, I consider how both spoken and written language contribute to relational identity development. I argue that Cisneros's use of language demonstrates that not only does language provide the means for development within a community, but also the means for creation within that society. The theoretical implications of such a relational identity construct are not only an expansion of what is entailed in Chicana identity, but an invitation for broadening the community of theoretical discussion surrounding Chicana literature.

Abstract:
碩士<br>淡江大學<br>英文學系碩士班<br>103<br>This thesis aims to examine Sandra Cisneros’s The House on Mango Street and Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories, and investigate female characters’ development of self-discovery as related to diverse experiences. This thesis is divided into three chapters. In Chapter One, “Awareness of Self: Identity, Recognition, Difference,” I explore the development of awareness of self in the growing experiences. The growing awareness of self is related to three concepts about self—identity, difference and recognition. I elaborate two types of formations of identity. In the first stage, they learn to locate their identity by “root formation.” In the second and third stage, they locate their identity by “route formation.” In Chapter Two, “Searching for Female Social Space,” I investigate the female characters’ quest for social growth by analyzing their different experiences of social space. I analyze how and why some female characters’ social space is fixed and stable, while others overcome social restriction and extend their social space. In Chapter Three, “Practices of Ideas of Self: Experiences of Gaze and Diaspora,” I analyze the female characters’ practices of ideas of self and how the practices are related to the experiences of gaze and diaspora. In discussing the experiences of gaze, I analyze how they respond to other people’s expectations and how such expectations influence their practices of ideas of self. In discussing the experiences of diaspora, I focus on the female characters’ challenges and difficulties in adapting to the immigrant country.
