Description
Abstract
Resumen: La obra militante de Maryse Condé aborda la sexualidad humana en su pluralidad, presentándonos personajes de diversas identidades sexuales que deben encontrar su camino en una sociedad patriarcal y basada en la heteronormatividad. La elección del tema de la homosexualidad, particularmente presente en algunas de sus novelas, da cuenta de la voluntad de liberar la literatura francófona del Caribe de todos sus tabúes. Este estudio propone analizar las diferentes actitudes de los personajes LGBT en el universo de Condé en relación con su orientación sexual, considerada tan desviada en las Antillas que se vuelve inefable. Al dar voz a estas minorías silenciadas, la autora aborda el tema de la igualdad de derechos, fundamental en su obra.
Abstract: Maryse Condé’s activist work addresses human sexuality in its plurality, presenting us with characters of diverse sexual identities who must find their way in a patriarchal and heterogeneous society. The choice of the subject of homosexuality, which is particularly present in some of her novels, stems from this desire to free French-language Caribbean literature from all its taboos. This study aims to analyze the different attitudes of LGBT characters in the Condean universe in relation to their sexual orientation, which is considered so deviant in the West Indies that it becomes unspeakable. By giving a voice to these minorities who have been ignored, the author touches on the issue of equal rights
