초록
This article undertakes a comparative study of orality in selected works by Chilean author, Isabel Allende. According to this study, Allende`s outlook on orality operates as a means of communal as well as personal survival. Within underlying discussions of aTekoh MT and R koiot t, orality is here viewed as a transformative narrative practice. Allende`s orality is presented as paradoxical because, though unwritten, it has the ability to preserve and to authenticate. The article presents orality as a continuing narrative process that attests to the cultural value of an ‘authentic’ Latin American identity, while also drawing attention to the predominantly female oral storytellers in these novels. Finally, it helps to explore the tension between silence and voice, folklore and sanctioned history, authentic experience and that constructed for a patriarchal ideology. An important medium of survival, Allende`s particular brand of orality ultimately constructs alternative narratives and realities. To this end, Eva Luna (1987), The Stories of Eva Luna (1989) and Paula (1994) will be discussed.
Abstract
This article undertakes a comparative study of orality in selected works by Chilean author, Isabel Allende.

Within underlying discussions of aTekoh MT and R koiot t, orality is here viewed as a transformative narrative practice. Allende`s orality is presented as paradoxical because, though unwritten, it has the ability to preserve and to authenticate. The article presents orality as a continuing narrative process that attests to the cultural value of an ‘authentic’ Latin American identity, while also drawing attention to the predominantly female oral storytellers in these novels. Finally, it helps to explore the tension between silence and voice, folklore and sanctioned history, authentic experience and that constructed for a patriarchal ideology. An important medium of survival, Allende`s particular brand of orality ultimately constructs alternative narratives and realities. To this end, Eva Luna (1987), The Stories of Eva Luna (1989) and Paula (1994) will be discussed.
