By analyzing their works in the proper \n socio-historical context and by defining how they fit into a relatively new mode of \n expression --the autoethnography-- I establish a transnational dialogue between \n the works of these two women. Transnational stories such as these challenge the \n superiority of the transnational identities established by the colonial powers and the \n literary, political and scientific works which have supported the exclusion and \n isolation of ethnic minority women. By analyzing and connecting these stories, my \n study helps to move forward the field of transnational feminist studies.","bbox":{"left":0.125646,"top":0.256736,"width":0.744697,"height":0.177234}}],"images_bbox":[],"images_bbox_not_text_overlap":[]}
