- FAMILY MATTERS: REVISITING LA GRAN FAMILIA PUERTORRIQUEÑA IN THE WORKS OF ROSARIO FERRÉ AND JUDITH ORTÍZ COFER Marisel Moreno Sociología canon Rosario Ferré Latina authors Judith Ortiz Cofer diaspora literature This essay argues for the recognition of a Puerto Rican 'transinsular' canon, one that reflects the transnational character of this population. I focus on key works by representative figures from each side of the divide, Rosario Ferré's Maldito amor and Judith Ortíz Cofer's Silent Dancing, in order to demonstrate how women's insular and stateside literatures are linked by their interrogation of the foundational myth of la gran familia puertorriqueña. My comparative approach aims to show that traditional criteria used to determine canonicity on the island has been rendered obsolete by the reality of transmigration. 2010 artículo científico 1538-6279 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=37721056004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=377 Centro Journal application/pdf The City University of New York Centro Journal (Estados Unidos de América) Num.2 Vol.XXII
