Las alcobas negras (1995) de Eugenia Viteri: memoria voluntaria y autoafirmación del personaje de la prostituta

Abstract:

This research analyzes the character of the prostitute, her voluntary memory, and her selfassertion in the Ecuadorian novel Las alcobas negras (1995) by Eugenia Viteri. This study answers the following question: What are the strategies used by the character of the prostitute to represent herself, remember and assert herself in Las alcobas negras? Regarding the theoretical framework, the following categories are used: “prostitute” (Tubert, 2013 and Sanchis, n.d.), “voluntary memory” (Bergson, 2006) and “self-affirmation” (Heim, 2006, as well as Arella, Fernández, Nicolás and Vartabedian, 2007). Regarding the methodological framework, the hermeneutical analysis is used from the perspective of Baeza (2002), which appeals to the fusion of the text, the context and the interpretive act. This academic work addresses a new perspective on the character of the prostitute. She is characterized as an individual who decides about her body, her sexuality and for making prostitution a job and a source of obtaining resources
