Chilean feminist writer, journalist, and editor.[2][3]
Biography
The daughter of the writer Carlos Luis Hübner and Teresa Bezanilla,[1] Sara Hübner de Fresno wrote for newspapers and magazines,[4] including Zig-Zag [
es], Sucesos, and Artes y letras.[5][6][7] She also edited the
Women's Page section of the periodical Las Últimas Noticias in the early 20th century.[8]
Part of her literary output is known to be unpublished or scattered in newspapers and magazines – as is also the case with other
feminist writers such as
Luisa Lynch,
María Luisa Fernández, and the sisters
Ximena and
Carmen Morla Lynch.[9] Her literary work is considered to be part of the early 20th century
avant-garde that sought to increase feminist thinking and fight for
women's rights.[10][11][12] However some of her writings express feelings of contempt toward the
Mapuche people.[13]
