HERNANDEZ, Carlos Andrés González. Representations of a dissident female sexuality: the case of the novel Tocar a Diana (Touching Diana) (2019), by Anacristina Rossi. Comunicación [online]. 2024, vol.33, n.2, pp.20-33. ISSN 1659-3820.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18845/rc.v34i2.7661.

This article explores the sociocultural dominance that the traditional family exer cises, as the nerve center of power, over the female sexuality of its members. This qualitative research delves into how the main character seeks to emancipate himself from a heteropatriarchal model that does not allow him to delight in his own body in his daily life. To do this, theoretical approaches will be use on the post-por nographic discourse of Eugenia Stracalli, Alonso Brenes, Laura Milano and Édgar Rodríguez. With respect to the framework of power, we will use Michel Foucault, Teun. A. Van Dijk and Judith Butler, among other theorists. Among the preliminary results of this article, we have that, this ultra-contemporary Costa Rican novel, vindicates the position of women as a being who wants to appropriate their sexual enjoyment and not be chained to a categorical sexist paradigm that imposes the rules to function in a society conservative that reduces female sexual pleasure to the marital sphere only.

Palabras clave : sexuality; pospornography; sexism; sexual repression; patriarchy.
