Resumen

En este ensayo, me propongo analizar las señas de una ética feminista en la novela Taken de Daphne Marlatt, texto que, basándose en la materialidad/ maternalidad del lenguaje, reconsidera la relación del sujeto (femenino) con el territorio, el lugar y el espacio, a la vez que propone una forma de maternalismo situada en la intersección entre feminismo y ecología. Mi lectura intentará elucidar la importancia de esta propuesta. Frente a una cartografía bélica, de ocupación y de violencia, el texto de Marlatt nos ofrece una vía de escape a través del paisaje, una geografía del cuerpo femenino basada en el maternalismo y en la fusión del cuerpo con el medio ambiente.
