This essay articulates Brazilian writer Adalzira Bittencourt?s feminism to the modernist movement in Brazil, drawing relationships between her modernist utopia ? which cannot be restricted to concerns about women?s power ? and the national dream that projected the nation in the 1920s. It also articulates Bittencourt?s brand of feminism ? in line with the Feminine Republican Party?s ideology (in the 1920s and 1930s) and under the influence of eugenic laws or hygienic practices ? with the hegemonic discourses emphasizing maternity as women?s mission in improving both the race and the nation.Downloads
