The configuration of the REWIND corpus has been particularly challenging. Source selection must be based on several criteria to make research coherent within the framework of decolonial gender theory. Thus, all corpus texts are by Latin American women authors who published in Spanish in book format, travelled to mostly the same European countries in the twentieth century before the Second World War, identified with the feminist cause and defended cultural diversity. In this way, Clorinda Matto, Isabel Carrasquilla, Inés Echeverría, María Enriqueta Camarillo and Zoila Aurora Cáceres became sociocultural interpreters of European cultural heritage as they built bridges between their cultural origin and Europe.
