dcterms.abstractMalinche's ever changing myth has contributed to the view that one woman is answerable for the legacy of conquest. This view, evoking worship and revile, operates more as a litmus test of the prevailing weltanschauung than as a claim of historical authenticity. In the context of imperialism, colonialism, and post-colonialism, this study seeks to examine the socio-sexual system as it defines the production of an enduring national mythic symbol. Exposing the ideological underpinnings of the narratives that have contributed to the Malinche myth, exemplar works will demonstrate the impact of: the ontological understanding of gendered models of imperialism; the historical instability of conflicting chronicles of the conquest; Creole definitions of nationalism articulated through normative control in the American Independence moment; the transhistorical, post-revolutionary attempt to delineate unifying archetypes of Mexican identity; and the rupture of female archetypes in favor of a discourse embracing ambiguity in the epic theater of the postmodern era.
