Özet:

 

In Julia Alvarez’s Time of the Butterflies  1994 , the author humanizes the four Mirabal sisters by chronicling their lives from childhood through adulthood. In accomplishing this feat of humanizing the Mirabal sisters, the novel is told in five different voices: the older Dedé, the younger Dedé, Patria, Minerva, and Mate. In this article the story of Dedé will be analyzed, for not much attention has been devoted to her. In analyzing Dedé and how she uses the concept of voice to become a feminist, I will use the theory of the voice and presence of the subaltern.
