Autobiographical Writing by Early Modern Hispanic Women

Focusing on the contributions of women writers, this work challenges the marginalization of women's life writing in the study of autobiography, particularly in early modern Spain and Mexico. It highlights the significant impact these authors had on the genre, aiming to elevate their voices and narratives within the broader literary context. By addressing the historical neglect of women's perspectives, the book seeks to enrich the understanding of autobiography during this pivotal period.
