Book Synopsis

A Re-mapping of Womanhood and Creativity investigates the diverse ways in which women set out to find a matrilineal line as a well-spring for creative transformation, and, through a lens of analytical psychology, how we read womenâs literary history and narratives about womanhood.

While following the feminine influences that forged her own search and nature as a writer, this book re-maps the life and work of Clara Oropezaâs literary mother, AnaÃs Nin, focusing on Ninâs formative affinity with her mother, alongside her own personal mother. In this mother-map, Oropeza looks closely at the relationship between mothers and daughters, the formation of the maternal wound, and ways to move towards healing. Oropeza examines the pivotal role that a reconnection to a maternal line has in shaping a womanâs creative life. This book argues that synthesizing our intellectual, spiritual and ancestral ways of knowing, away from the harmful narratives that shape our lives, is essential
