Descripción:This article studies the novels Barro (1951) by Paca Navas de Miralda and Aquel año rojo (1973) by Argentina Díaz Lozano from the Discourse Critical Analysis (ACD, by its acronym in Spanish) of Teun A. Van Dijk. In the macro context of banana plantations in Honduras, the subjectivities in fight of female characters are underestimated because predominate the social conflict discourses, as well as the attainment of labor rights and social denunciations of the male working class. This is why the women in the enclaves fight with themselves and with their peers from their subjectivities, in spaces marked by violence and inequality, with the desire to emerge in the face of a predominantly masculine space. The discourses that frame these subjectivities are of the social knowledge in which the mental frames support the beliefs. The protagonists do not escape at being a topic of conversation and collective knowledge, which makes them oscillate in ontological variants of acceptance and rejection. More than an estimate of their work, emotional and procuring abilities, female characters are valued for being. The corpus offer a horizon that not only corresponds to write down for literary characters, but also competes for Honduras, creating an imaginary according with the ideas of ethnicity, morality and identity.
