Las indómitas rinde tributo al rostro anónimo de las mujeres que lucharon en la Revolución, a la inconfundible Jesusa Palancares y al silencio de las mujeres del servicio.
Madres, activistas, revolucionarias, artistas y trabajadoras incansables; desde sus trincheras, han luchado por trastocar el orden patriarcal, pero también han sido el motor que le ha dado un nuevo giro a la historia y cuyo brillante ejemplo es el faro que nos guÃa hacia al futuro. Desde las soldaderas de la Revolución; la entrañable Jesusa Palancares (protagonista de Hasta no verte Jesús mÃo); las trabajadoras domésticas; las extraordinarias escritoras Nellie Campobello, Josefina Vicens y Rosario Castellanos, hasta la activista Rosario Ibarra de Piedra y la feminista Marta Lamas, esta recopilación de ensayos comparte el legado de las mujeres que desconocen la orden de rendirse.
La Biblioteca Elena Poniatowska reúne la obra literaria, ensayÃstica y crÃtica de la escritora que le ha devuelto a las mujeres su papel central en la sociedad. En Las indómitas les rinde tributo a las heroÃnas comprometidas con la justicia y la creatividad.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Las indómitas (The Untamed) pays tribute to the anonymous face of the women who fought in the Revolution, the unmistakable Jesusa Palancares, and the silence of domestic workers.
Mothers, activists, revolutionaries, artists, and tireless workers; from their trenches, they have fought to disrupt the patriarchal order, but they have also been the engine that has given a new twist to history, and whose brilliant example is the beacon that guides us towards the future. From the soldaderas of the Revolution; the beloved Jesusa Palancares (protagonist of Hasta no verte Jesús mÃo); domestic workers; the extraordinary writers Nellie Campobello, Josefina Vicens, and Rosario Castellanos, to the activist Rosario Ibarra de Piedra and the feminist Marta Lamas, this collection of essays shares the legacy of the women who do not know the meaning of surrender.
The Elena Poniatowska Library gathers the literary, essayistic, and critical work of the writer who has restored women to their central role in society. In Las indómitas, she pays tribute to the heroines committed to justice and creativity.
