Abstract "The invisibilization of nineteenth-century women in Ecuador can be understood as the result of what I call in this book the patriarchal imagination: a dominant order of exclusions and forms of discipline, control, censorship, erasure, moralization and male silencing that naturalized and normalized the supposed female inferiority, making it part of the common sense of the time. In this book I study how, towards the last quarter of the 19th century, a heterogeneous group of national and foreign women writers, many of them Catholic freethinkers, began to progressively participate in the Ecuadorian press, denaturalizing their invisibility in the order of culture, literate and openly questioned, in certain cases, the same existing gender inequalities and exclusions. The emergence and public participation of these educated and intellectual women can be considered a milestone in the cultural history of the country, not only because this was the first generation of writers to intervene in the national press, but because their unusual presence had significant consequences in the defense of their educational, social and political rights"-- Provided by publisher.
