Abstract
Fostering to present an analysis of the impacts of Mamah Borthwick’s relationship with Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural works, narrated through the historical fiction Loving Frank, by Nancy Horan (2007), this paper aims to discuss the concepts of architectural ekphrasis in order to delve into how the interaction with architecture can bring up Mamah Borthwick’s – the main character – social context and close relationship with the Woman Movement. For that, the space within three houses has been analyzed and through ekphrases we discuss how the main character develops love, self-discovery, and search for independence. In order to that, this article is anchored by the notions proposed by Claus Clüver (2019), Gaston Bachelard (1994), and Miriam Vieira (2017; 2021a; 2021b).
