Through archival approaches, performativity, and a queer ethics of care, the text highlights a Mistral who is ambiguous, affectively complex, and deeply linked to Latin American genealogies of resistance. The dialogue with Casa Particular (1990) and Paris is Burning (1990) expands this perspective by positioning Mistral alongside other marginalized bodies that build community through desire and dissidence. In this way, her work emerges as a living archive that enables new pedagogies, new memories, and new forms of accompanying those who inhabit the margins-especially in the context of the Chilean social uprising and contemporary feminist movements. Este artículo propone una lectura queer, feminista y situada de Gabriela Mistral, para cuestionar las narrativas patriarcales que han reducido su figura y borrado la potencia disidente de su obra. Desde el archivo, la performatividad y una ética del cuidado queer, se ilumina una Mistral ambigua, afectivamente compleja y ligada a genealogías de resistencia latinoamericana. El diálogo con Casa Particular (1990) y Paris is Burning (1990) amplía esta lectura, situando a Mistral junto a otras corporalidades marginalizadas que crean comunidad desde el deseo y la disidencia. Así, su obra aparece como un archivo vivo que permite imaginar nuevas pedagogías, nuevas memorias y modos de acompañar a quienes habitan los márgenes, especialmente en el contexto del estallido social y los feminismos contemporáneos. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: Spanish refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Nomadías is the property of Universidad de Chile, Facultad de Filosofia y Humanidades and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
