Abstract
Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this article intends to evaluate the extent to which sorority has become an essential part of the demands of contemporary feminist movements and how the book New Portuguese Letters (1972) helps us to understand the importance of this issue. The selected corpus raises questions that lead to a convergent reading between two central cores of interpretation: the solidarity among women and the strategies of search for the liberation of the cloister.
