- W3123683111 abstract "Clorinda Matto de Turner (1852-1909) was one of the most prominent writers of Spanish Latin America. She played a major role in championing the rights of middle and upper class women in 19th century Peruvian society and she was the first to fight for human rights for the Peruvian Indigenous people. Through her writing and, in particular her novel Aves sin nido (1889), Turner sensitised her audience to “the voices of the silenced, of resistance, of domestic or political violence, of women’s experience in the private and public space” (Medeiros-Lichem, 2002, p.2). She used literature as an instrument for socio-political and moral reform. Aves sin nido recounts the plight of the Indigenous under the oppression of the powerful local authority in the small town of Killac, in the middle of the Andes. The Indians fight for freedom with the help from local women. Some may argue that “no es una novela feminista, sino indigenista”, but in fact Aves sin nido is both a “novela indigenista” and “feminista”. It raises awareness of the problems facing native populations across the Americas in the late 19th century, but also “deconstructs the hierarchical division between male and female to challenge the subordinate position of women vis-a-vis men” (Kaminsky, 1993, p.18). Through Aves sin nido, Turner encourages the Indigenous population as well as women to rise up and reclaim their rights and their place in society. Turner was adamant that Indigenous be included in the framework of the new Peruvian Nation (Ward, 2002). By bringing to light the appalling conditions of the Indians in Peru and describing in detail their way of life, their traditions and customs, and culture, Turner gives the reader a unique appreciation of Indians as humans. Through the setting, plot, characters, and as well as language, Turner uses the novel as a vehicle to criticise the oppression of the native population of Peru by small town officials, judicial authorities, and priests, which she had witnessed herself first-hand. Turner also includes an important representation of women who lead this movement of reformation of the Nation in favour of Indians. She applauds, through her characters, women who are stronger and more decisive, slowly escaping from gender constructs and social norms. These women fight, like Turner, for a new order and new institutions in Peru, particularly in education and law, for the protection of minorities and women (Showalter, 1992)." @default.
