Abstract:
Based on Susan Sontag’s against-interpretative provocation, this essay aims to reflect on the change in epistemological paradigms in two reports written by women, which operationalize, in their own way, a critique of universality, by affirming the not-all. Our hypothesis is that the female habitation in language, in the case of Isabela Figueiredo and Noemi Jaffe, affirming that previous precedence, whether in the figure of the father or in the mother, unfolds in a figuration of language in permanent attention towards the limits of judgment and the knowable.
