Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. Facultad de Lenguas; Argentina. This thesis closely examines the classic novel Little Women (1868) by Louisa May Alcott and three contemporary reworkings: Hasta siempre, Mujercitas (2004) by Marcela Serrano, The Little Women Letters (2012) by Gabrielle Donnelly and the manhwa Dear my girls (2005 to 2012) by Kim Hee-Eun. In relation to Little Women’s hypertexts: pastiche, sequel and adaptation, respectively, part of the analysis contemplates to what extent the texts both pay homage to their nineteenth-century predecessor and refurbish it for a more contemporary perspective from a postfeminist stance. Despite the fact that these texts were created in different settings and times, they reveal how the patriarchal authority prevailing in the past persists in this century. The main characters in each of them are strong and resilient women trying to survive in a hostile world. These stories come together as a political appeal for recognition to women who must be acknowledged and empowered. Fil: Lanzi, Elisabet Adriana. Universidad Nacional de Córdoba.
