RODAL LINARES, Selma. Feminine Semantics in Roza tumba quema by Claudia Hernández. Península [online]. 2023, vol.18, n.1, pp.115-136.  Epub 23-Abr-2024. ISSN 1870-5766.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cephcis.25942743e.2023.18.1.84260.

In this article, I propose that the novel Roza tumba quema, by Claudia Hernández, creates an own semantics of the feminine that exhibits what is the function that the social construction of common sense has in the structural inequalities, experienced by women. Thus, I evaluate the effects generated by three central strategies of the work: 1) the articulation of a collective enunciation that assembles plural and singular heterogeneous voices; 2) the configuration of a common territory, beginning with the creation of semantic patterns that determine female action power within the community; and 3) the coordination among the vital experiences of the different female characters. This analysis leads me to conclude that the sign regime in the novel, due to its linguistic variables, turns feminine bodies into exploitation territories and excludes women from public space, preventing them from having a place in the community.
