Mujeres guerreras, justicia social y la potencia transformadora de la ira en la serie Sabina Kane de la autora Jaye Wells
Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Las heroínas de la fantasía urbana suelen ser seres sobrenaturales o mágicos altamente entrenados que desvergonzadamente ejercen la violencia para conseguir sus objetivos. Sus historias, con frecuencia organizadas como narrativas de venganza, están en muchos casos motivadas por la ira, una fuerza clave del bien en su búsqueda de justicia. Las heroínas se transforman en protectoras cuando sus trayectorias personales, frecuentemente complicadas por los lazos de parentesco, se entrelazan con el destino de ciudades particulares. A partir de la relectura de la serie de Sabina Kane de la autora Jaye Wells en el contexto de las recientes reinterpretaciones de la ira de las mujeres, argumento que la rabia es una fuente de responsabilidad social, resolviendo así la aparente contradicción entre el cuidado y la violencia, y puede integrarse en la novela romántica como un afecto legítimo. Explicaré cómo, en la serie de Wells , la guerrera transita de la soledad a la solidaridad sin sacrificar su capacidad para ejercer la violencia extrema o negar su ira.
