This article offers a proposal for analysis of Una holandesa en América (1888), by Soledad Acosta de Samper. To determine how the conditions of education were imposed on women in New Granada, we use the concept of intersectionality (Lugones, 2014). It is concluded that Lucía, a character who represents the author’s thought in the face of the social situation of the 19th century New Granada woman, is still far from proposing female emancipation by educating her sisters from their privileged position.
