América April 1, 2026 María Ramírez Delgado
An analysis of Teresa de la Parra's novel 'Ifigenia' examines how the character María Eugenia Alonso embodies debates about gender representations and the body. The novel's epistolary and diary format reveals introspective, experiential aspects of the character, highlighting the quality of her phenomenal consciousness as defined by Ned Block. The work questions whether literature can contribute to the philosophy of consciousness by illustrating how subjective experience and gender norms intersect in a woman's self-awareness and bodily representation.
