Diverse attempts have been made to probe the male characters in Shakespeare's <italic> The Tempest</italic>; these figures have been ascribed a highly political depictional value. However, the possibilities of exploring and transforming the female figures have been largely ignored. My project inscribes the female characters, Sycorax and Miranda, in order to reveal how poignantly their absence-presence accents the play. Through the characters, I secure a theory that is inclusive of Africanness and of women. I argue that these characters are the embodiment of the silences that irrupt through the narrative, and that theirs are silences that also serve to frame, to mold, to contain, and to ejaculate an utterance that asserts itself by vocalizing desire and denouncing an oppressive colonial experience. Both characters emit a cry that describes a different history and prescribes a different vision: Sycorax as a <italic>forgotten</italic> history and a repressed origin, Miranda, as her offspring, the Caribbean writer who is seeking her own voice. Arguing against current psychoanalytical methodologies, I contend that in colonial identificatory processes the visual space that relies upon <italic> reflection</italic> and which is created by language is superseded by a third space that is created by <italic>refraction</italic> and one that Sycorax rules. I denominate as <bolditalic>Sycorax's syndrome</bolditalic> the particular identificatory phenomenon that occurs in, and affects, colonial subjectivity and sexual identity. The <italic>Sycorax syndrome</italic> challenges the Lacanian concept of the “mirror” phase. The <italic>Sycorax syndrome</italic> will help explore the themes of madness and exile in Miriam Warner-Vieyrals novel, <italic>Juletane</italic>, and it will help elucidate woman's desire for the Mother in Jamaica Kincaid's <italic> Annie John</italic>. Sycorax and Miranda will help explore the themes of madness, forlornness and virginity in Edwidge Danticat's <italic>Breath, Eyes, Memory </italic>. In addition, I offer an analysis of Ana Lydia Vega's “La otra maldad de Pateco,” and José Luis González' “En el fondo del caño hay un negrito,” as perfect examples of the marginal space the colonial subject occupies in current psychoanalytical theory. Shakespeare's characters will prove to be ideal icons with which to represent the silences found in Caribbean literary production and the Canon that resists their penetration.
