The use of virtual assistants is increasing every day, as a technological tool that is marketed as a necessity to assist in making our modern lives more efficient. These tools are designed to help us with daily tasks such as searching for information, reading emails, writing messages, making calls and scheduling meetings with others. The most popular examples “Siri” or “Alexa” have been created with specific gendered characteristics and behavior as the author points out “virtual assistants are very obviously gendered. Siri and Alexa both have female names”, (Fellows, forthcoming 2022) designed with a personality of submissive and serviceable, as the author mentions “they portray a gender binary dominant-submissive relationship, positioning the user in the dominant position, and they play out subordination as feminine.” (Fellows, forthcoming 2022)Not peer reviewe
El poder de la voz y del acto de narrar en <em>La amante de Gardel </em>de Mayra Santos Febres
No full textRESUMEN: Este artículo analiza la narración femenina en La amante de Gardel (2015) de la autora puertorriqueña Mayra Santos-Febres según los planteamientos de Mladen Dolar al conceptualizar la voz como objeto y las definiciones del sujeto que proponen Patricia Collins y bell hooks. El trabajo sitúa la novela en relación con la producción literaria anterior de Santos-Febres para mostrar cómo La amante de Gardel comparte algunas de las mismas preocupaciones a la vez que se distingue por ser narrada en primera persona por una protagonista afrodescendiente, Micaela Thorné. El artículo demuestra cómo los rasgos ambiguos del objeto voz del cantante Carlos Gardel, convertido en personaje, provocan la narración de la protagonista. Al narrarse a sí misma, Micaela se apropia de la voz de Gardel y se afirma como sujeto al mismo tiempo que reconoce y cuestiona los discursos sexistas y racistas que pretenden limitarla, en particular la dicotomía mente y cuerpo.

ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the female narration of La amante de Gardel (2015) by Puerto Rican author Mayra Santos-Febres in light of Mladen Dolar’s theorization of the object voice and the definitions of the subject proposed by Patricia Collins and bell hooks. The essay situates the novel in relation to Santos-Febres’ earlier works in order to show how La amante de Gardel shares some of the same concerns while distinguishing itself through its first-person narration by an Afrodescendant protagonist, Micaela Thorné. The article shows how the ambiguous qualities of Carlos Gardel’s object voice inspire the protagonist’s narration. By narrating her story, Micaela appropriates Gardel’s voice and affirms herself as a subject at the same time that she recognizes and questions the sexist and racist discourses that attempt to limit her, in particular the mind/body dichotomy.
Key words: Mayra Santos-Febres, object voice, feminism, subjectivity, racism, Carlos Gardel
La herida que es recordar: história e memória no romance Fe en disfraz de Mayra Santos-Febres
No full textThe dissertation entitled La herida, que es recordar: história and memória in Mayra Santos-Febres's novel Fe en disfraz, proposes a reading of the novel referenced in the Puerto Rican author Mayra Santos-Febres, focusing on the author's interpretative proposals for categories such as memory and history, and the way in which fictionally articulates the story-stories that are engaged in the text. Memory and history are currently much explored, however, in the research developed, the subject will be approached considering the contexts of Brazil and Puerto Rico referenced in the corpus of the research. Contemporaneously, there have been numerous re-readings of versions presented by traditional historiography regarding the memory of colonization and enslavement, it is precisely this movement that is observed in the novel studied here, so this research aims to make visible the intellectual and artistic production of authorship Feminine and black that, in the context of Latin America, proposes to critically re-read ancestral memories, as is the case of Santos-Febres. In order to do so, we have dialogues with theoretical references from Cultural Studies, Literature Theory, Feminist Studies, among which are authors Stuart Hall (2003), Tomás Tadeu (2014); (1998), Lélia González (1998), Euridice Figueiredo (2010), Pollack (1986) ), Ricouer (2007), Nora (1996), Benjamin (2012), among others. In dialogue with this referential, memory is here worked as production, that is, in the novel Fe en disfraz, the memory is not individual, but collective, as it is not spontaneous, but produced, due to issues such as memory duty And the politics of memory. Thus, Mayra Santos-Febres can be inserted within a group of insurgent intellectuals, for committing to make a counter-reading of the women's stories-memories of which the literary narrative here studied deals with.A dissertação intitulada La herida que es recordar: história e memória no romance Fe en dizfraz de Mayra Santos-Febres propõe uma leitura do romance referenciado no título de autoria da porto-riquenha Mayra Santos-Febres, focalizando-se as propostas interpretativas da escritora para categorias como memória e história, e o modo como articula ficcionalmente as histórias-memórias agenciadas no texto. Memória e história são temas muito explorados atualmente, entretanto, na pesquisa desenvolvida, o tema será abordado considerando os contextos de Brasil e Porto Rico referenciados no corpus da pesquisa. Contemporaneamente, tem-se produzido inúmeras releituras de versões apresentadas pela historiografia tradicional no que tange a memória da colonização e da escravização, é justamente esse movimento que se observa no romance ora estudado, assim, esta pesquisa objetiva visibilizar a produção intelectual e artística de autoria feminina e negra que, no contexto da América Latina, se propõe a reler criticamente memórias ancestrais, como é o caso de Santos-Febres. Para tanto dialogamos com referenciais teóricos advindos dos Estudos Culturais, da Teoria da Literatura, dos Estudos Feministas, dentre os quais estão os autores Stuart Hall (2003), Tomás Tadeu (2014); bell hooks (1995), Chimamanda Adieche (2014), Florentina Souza (2006), Lélia Gonzáles (1998), Angela Davis (2013) Home Bhabha (1998), Lélia Gonzáles (1998), Euridice Figueiredo (2010), Pollack (1986), Ricouer (2007), Nora (1996), Benjamin (2012), dentre outros. Em diálogo com esse referencial, a memória é aqui trabalhada como produção, isto é, no romance Fe en disfraz, a memória não é individual, mas coletiva, assim como não é espontânea, mas produzida, em função de questões como o dever de memória e a política da memória. Assim, Mayra Santos-Febres pode ser inserida dentro de um grupo de intelectuais insurgentes, por se comprometer em fazer uma leitura a contra pelo das histórias-memórias das mulheres de que trata a narrativa literária aqui estudado

Being a topic that falls within a wide range of areas, our focus is on literature, cultural studies or
to literature, cultural or gender studies, anthropology, etc. For this reason, the of this work begins with an introduction to the literary-historical context of interest to us: the Caribbean, the area of birth of the the Caribbean, the area where Santos-Febres' thought was born and about which he speaks in most of his work.in much of his work. We then construct a theoretical corpus that helps us to identify how ritualization how ritualization works as a reformer or creator of subjectivities within the novels, where the elements of the
the novels, where the elements of transvestism and disguise claim a significant role as symbolic objects, as well as the significant role as symbolic objects, ritual objects.

constructor de identidades en dos novelas de la autora puertorriqueña Mayra SantosFebres. Al ser un tema que se inscribe en una extensa gama de áreas, nuestro enfoque se
dirige a la literatura, los estudios culturales o de género, la antropología, etc. Por ello la
distribución de este trabajo inicia con una introducción al contexto hístico-literario que nos
interesa: el Caribe, zona donde nace el pensamiento de Santos-Febres y sobre la cual habla
en gran parte de su obra. Luego construimos un corpus teórico que nos ayuda a identificar
como funge la ritualización como reformadora o creadora de subjetividades al interior de
las novelas, donde los elementos del travestismo y el disfraz reclaman un papel
significativo al ser objetos simbólicos, objetos rituales. Para finalizar, se encuentra el
análisis propiamente dicho en el cual se visibiliza como las acciones de los personajes los
orillan a crisis identitarias que posteriormente inmersas en un proceso ritual se verán
resultas y modificadas. En conclusión, estas páginas obedecen a la necesidad que existe de
generar espacios que muestren a la identidad, ya no como una cuestión fija, natural e
inherente al ser humano, sino como un proceso fluctuante con un variado tipo de
manifestaciones
