The narrative space is a complex and significative element within narratological analysis since it may determine key interactions among Ideo-cultural and extratexual codes. The main aim of this research is to analyse how spatial discourse is drafted. According to what Valles Calatrava states, it should be taken into account not only the position or the course of action but also, as he reveals, a manifest imbrication in the subject structure. Specifically, this research focuses in the construction of the feminine subject from the French perspective of différance in order to both verify the importance of certain contexts to break hegemonic patriarchal discourse as well as to contribute to the formation of a new symbolic structure by including several feminine subjects.
