Resumen
Pivotando en torno al personaje epicéntrico de Grace Stewart, nuestra aproximación pretende sumergirse en el imaginario de fantasmagoría, violentación y monopolización del punto de vis ta unívoco en Los otros a fin de subrayar las claves de una necesaria deconstrucción de la voz y el discurso de la madre oscura. Las múltiples lecturas periféricas y resistentes, además de ciertos indicios figurativos — con el quiasmo como constante — refrendan el papel de aquella como antagonista falible y esquizoide.
