Alterity in Women's Literature
Women's literature as a cultural construction continues to seek its own space despite being discussed in studies of cultural anthropology and sociology. This project tries to reflect on the importance of understanding the literary texts of women's literature, without labels, that is, without political and sociological connotations, which are generally associated with feminist "struggles", and this literature in particular, brings the subject of enunciation conscious, (which is the fighting author's ego). After the heyday of feminist literature, we understand that the latter did not reach a new audience of female authors and readers, as it also shows us other aspects of alterity. It is questioned whether the alterity factor has become the basis of women's literature today.

Abstract:
Women's literature as a cultural construction continues to seek its own space despite being discussed in studies of cultural anthropology and sociology. This project tries to reflect on the importance of understanding the literary texts of women's literature, without labels, that is, without political and sociological connotations, which are generally associated with feminist "struggles", and this literature in particular, brings the subject of enunciation conscious, (which is the fighting author's ego). After the heyday of feminist literature, we understand that the latter did not reach a new audience of female authors and readers, as it also shows us other aspects of alterity. It is questioned whether the alterity factor has become the basis of women's literature today.
