Abstract

Upon the arrival at Manor Cancebí in Manabí, Diego de Almagro was witness of the power of “Cacica Tosagua widow” (Regalado, 2014, p 149), who assumed power after the death of her husband; this fact tells us about the importance a women had in Manabí, at least in parts of the region. Several centuries later, the presence of women today is viewed in public positions such as: provincial, legislative, policy and professional dignitaries. However, the contradiction between the interference of women in society and their limited representation in the historical and literary discourse is one of the literate traditions of Manabí. Starting from this disagreement, this article seeks to investigate the ways in which was simplified, reduced, and still invisibilized the female character in some novels of the region, by tracking the process by which the literate foundational prestige that Angel Rama alludes, became phallogocentrism which is evidenced in some plays of the province. Taking the formulations of Jacques Derrida, Hélène Cixous, and Marcela Lagarde, as the starting point of this reflection, some questions were answered: How does the hyper masculinized Manabí novel contributes to the invisibility of women? How could the literature rescue the different spaces that have influenced the dynamics of gender? What impact has the submission of these female characters in the construction of stereotypes, both women, like a traditional masculinity?
