- Abstract:
- This paper analyzes the presence of autobiographical traits from Teresa de la Parra (1889-1936) in the book Iphigenia. Diary of a young lady who wrote because she was annoyed (1924), as one of the few cases of Latin American women writers in the twentieth century. In this regard, it explores three aspects: 1. The intellectual development and literary career of the author; 2. The description of the female protagonist of the novel, Maria Eugenia Alonso; and 3. The relationship of Teresa de la Parra and image of the woman educated through the character of Maria Eugenia. To conclude from a historical perspective, the book Iphigenia, and its creator, represents a testimony of literature, promoting a clearer understanding of Latin American women, who had access to education, during the early twentieth century.
