Resumen de The Nature of Chicana Literature: Feminist Ecological Literary Criticism and Chicana Writers
This essay examines the relationship between the ecology of the earth and Chicana literary discourse. Chicana writers, through their narrative and poetry express a concern for the environment both in terms of preserving it in a clean pristine state, as well as in terms of agricultural pollution which affects the farm workers and their families. The article applies ecological literary theory in the hermeneutics of the works of Cherríe Moraga, Helena María Viramontes, Naomi Quiñónez, and Alma Villanueva.
