First Edition. Quarto. 53 pp. Printed wraps. Wear to edges with some minor chipping and a few stray scuffs. Binding sound. A few smudges and spots but interior else unmarked; overall a Very Good copy. Book-length essay from the Argentine writer and intellectual analyzing the work and influence of Emily Bronte. Known as the founder and director of Sur, Ocampo, like many Latin American women, used the essay as the primary vehicle for her expression, often promoting female solidarity in the literary world. As Doris Meyer notes in her essay on Ocampo, "Recognizing the male custom of devaluing women's thought and monopolizing speech, Ocampo calls upon her women listeners to shed the inferiority complex to which they have been acculturated and to begin to change the course of history by bearing witness to their own lives and concerns," (Rereading the Spanish American Essay: Translations of 19th and 20th Century Women's Essays, p. 120.).
