                        ¿Cómo es que se puede escapar verdaderamente de la opresión patriarcal? Esta investigación aborda a través de un análisis de la literatura de escritoras del Cono Sur el asunto complicado de la liberación bajo un sistema en constante mutación. En el primer capítulo, a partir de aportes teóricos de Freud, Josefina Ludmer y Homi Bhabha entre otros, analizo cuentos de Jorge Luis Borges, Silvina Ocampo, y Clarice Lispector cuyas protagonistas intentan resistir su condición de víctima con diversos grados de éxito. En el capítulo que sigue, exploro una tendencia reciente en la literatura de escritoras del Cono Sur que incorpora elementos del horror y lo gótico para desestabilizar una cosmovisión humanista y patriarcal. Incorporando la teoría de Gabriel Giorgi, Rosi Braidotti, y Julieta Yelin, investigo los efectos que los animales, los cuerpos, y la materia tienen en la expansión de la agencia feminista y discuto si ofrecen o no nuevas e inesperadas posibilidades para resistir el sistema.
