| Summary: | The Peruvian writer Mercedes Cabello de Carbonera (1842-1909) participated in foreign periodicals and press throughout her literary career, between 1874 and 1896. The article analyzes two important phases in that participation: her contributions to the Parisian and New York press. In these two exemplary capitals of hegemonic Western culture and modernity, the illustrated press in Spanish becomes a medium of diffusion for the conquest of a Latin American audience. Through these channels, Mercedes Cabello becomes a recognized interlocutor in dialogue with authors from the English- and French-speaking world, and capable therefore not only of refuting the dominance of Spanish over Spanish American writers, but also of defending intellectual Latin Americanism, and within it, women’s participation in cultural and international political debates at the end of the nineteenth century. Mercedes Cabello’s presence on the international stage also allows her to make visible the necessity for new political and economic alliances between Peru and the principal economies of Europe and the Americas. |
