dc.description.abstractEsta tesis comprueba la persistencia de los planteamientos utópicos en la narrativa latinoamericana contemporánea escrita por mujeres, para lo cual se consideran dos novelas representativas de esa narrativa: Diez mujeres (2011) de Marcela Serrano (1951) y Delirio (2004) de Laura Restrepo (1950). El acercamiento teórico de la tesis se basa en un enfoque cultural que incluye algunas proposiciones de Avishai Margalit, Ruth Levitas, María Zambrano y Fernando Aínsa. Este acercamiento teórico se centra en el concepto de la función utópica, entendida, según la perspectiva de este último pensador, como la vital necesidad de creer en posibilidades futuras promisorias de mayor plenitud en el plano personal y comunitario. La función utópica incluye, entonces, la capacidad de soñar despierto, de tener ilusión, lo cual se diferencia de sólo creer porque la ilusión tiene que ver más con nuestros anhelos profundos que con las creencias o la fe. Asimismo, la función utópica se define como el cuestionamiento del orden establecido.en_US
dc.description.abstractThis thesis proves the persistence of utopian proposals in contemporary Latin American narrative written by women. For the purpose of this study two novels have been considered representative of this narrative: Diez mujeres (2011) by Marcela Serrano (1951) and Delirio (2004) by Laura Restrepo (1950). The theoretical approach of the thesis is based on a cultural focus that includes some of the propositions of Avisahi Margalit, Ruth Levitas, María Zambrano and Fernando Aínsa. At the center of this theoretical approach is the concept of the function of utopia, which according to this last thinker is understood as the vital need to believe in promising future possibilities of greater fulfillment at personal and community levels. Therefore, the function of utopia includes the capacity to daydream, to hope, which differs from just believing because to hope has more to do with our deep desires than with our faith or our beliefs. Likewise, the function of utopia is defined as a way to question the established order.en_US
