Narrative and transfeminism

The case of “La liebre dorada” by Silvina Ocampo

Abstract

The article approaches transfeminism from a literary and historical perspective that takes Silvina Ocampo's story “La liebre dorada” to think about the way in which this work crosses and conceives feminisms. In this story, the symbolic presence of the animal calls into question the nature of its species, opening the possibility of thinking an analogy with women and asking ourselves about the way in which feminisms cross the borders of the biological and of an era. In this sense, the article goes beyond the confines of the work and analyzes the singularity of Ocampo's work, its symbolisms and configurations, within the framework of the contemporary feminist impulse.
