Resumen

Este artículo presenta una primera aproximación al estudio de las representaciones de la figura de la Mujer Nueva en las publicaciones irlandesas "The Irish Times" y "The Weekly Irish Times" en la época Victoriana, a finales de siglo XIX. Para ello se analiza en primer lugar el concepto de Mujer Nueva y su coincidencia en el tiempo con el denominado Nuevo Periodismo, desde el punto de vista de los estudios de mujeres. Se estudia, en segundo lugar, la etiología y características de las publicaciones utilizadas como corpus, los criterios de selección de las mismas, y se comparan con las publicaciones inglesas en este período. También se explora el reflejo de la convulsa situación política finisecular irlandesa en estas publicaciones. Otro de los ejes del trabajo es el estudio de la situación de la mujer en el período y las diferentes percepciones sobre la misma, a veces contrapuestas, y cómo éstas se reflejan en estas publicaciones, tanto en diferentes artículos de opinión como en la Sección de Cartas al Director. Se comparan, asimismo, los roles de las mujeres en estas publicaciones con los de la prensa dirigida exclusivamente a lectoras y sus rasgos distintivos. En tercer lugar, se analizan extractos de diferentes artículos y las sorprendentes y contradictorias opiniones vertidas sobre las vidas de las mujeres del período.
