Although ethnography is defined many times as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153the study of the Other,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in Norma E. Cant\u00c3\u00ba it becomes the study of the subjective self and the others who relationally define the self.<\/p>\n

Author Norma E. Cant\u00c3\u00ba\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s writing describes a border culture not only because it speaks Spanish, is bilingual and bicultural, and is mostly located in Laredo and Nuevo Laredo, the U.S. and M\u00c3\u00a9xico, but also because it depicts a bicognitive reality. Sara Garc\u00c3\u00ada has pointed out that Cant\u00c3\u00ba writes about \u00e2\u20ac\u0153the border from within the border,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d what Mary Louise Pratt calls \u00e2\u20ac\u0153the contact zone.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d In her work, Norma E. Cant\u00c3\u00ba depicts the internal, moral, and linguistic borders that Chican@s cross continually throughout their lives in various and diverse manners.<\/p>\n

With its mixture of writing and orality, past and present, all mediated by memory, Can\u00c3\u00adcula: Snapshots of a Girlhood en la Frontera<\/i>, Cant\u00c3\u00ba\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s first groundbreaking novel, could also be read as testimonial literature if defined by Margaret Randall as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153the possibility to reconstruct the truth.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

Cant\u00c3\u00ba\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s oeuvre and vision, including but not limited to her criticism, folklore, theory, and literature, as well as her newspaper articles.
