ARGUELLES ROZADA, Esther. The authorial tension in Amparo Dávila: a study on the feminist position of the writer. Lit. mex [online]. 2022, vol.33, n.2, pp.107-136.  Epub 08-Ago-2022. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.2022.33.2.7731x04.

An analysis is proposed of the feminist projection of the Mexican writer Amparo Dávila (1928-2020). Accordingly, the article starts with a theoretical framework that links feminist literary criticism with the concept of “literary posture” of Jérôme Meizoz (2007) for the study of those interviews which present an attempt of configuration by Davila of an image of an individualist author. Secondly, the articulation of a feminine literary support network in which the writer participates within the literary field will be considered. After that, we will offer some notes for a future analysis on “El huésped” which, by taking back this tale to its place of production, enlightens anew its feminist potential. Finally, the conclusion sums up the causes and consequences of the ambivalent relation with feminism that the Davila’s literary position presents.
