This is the first book to analyze Spanish and Spanish-American
literature in light of several theories of sexuality advanced since
Freud. Bringing into discussion such writers as Fuentes, Neruda,
Garcia Lorca, Galdos, and St. Teresa of Avila, Smith draws on
critical approaches derived from Marx, Lacan, Foucault, Barthes,
and French theoretical feminism (Kristeva and Irigaray). He argues
that in spite of the variety of texts and theories treated, there
are three broad areas of coherence or coincidence: the status of
women in a male culture; the possibility of resistance to
authority; and the role of the body as protagonist in that
resistance.
