Resumo
The purpose of this research is to examine the presence of gender relations in five
goianos tales, especially the violence of male characters against female characters and
the degree of acceptance or resistance to the phenomenon.
The stories analyzed are part of the second volume of the Antologia do conto goiano,
organized by Vera Maria Tietzmann Silva and Maria Zaira Turchi (1994). As a result of
the literary object, we address the evolution of the gender system from the development
of civilization until the twentieth century, showing the emergence and perpetuation of
the structure of male domination, even after the maturity of feminist struggles. These
struggles, however, are not systematically studied, appearingonly in scattered
references. With regard to adhesion and to the resistance, we call attention to the fact
that identities are socially and politically constructed, in order to establish dominant and
dominated groups, and generated cognition of this division as natural and therefore
inevitable. The internalization of constructed identities demand constant work of
situated agents and, in the case of generic identities, this is played by the institutions and
men, with their violent practices. The continuous effect of these practices is leading to
adhesion of dominated to dominant, as in almost all of the stories analyzed.
Nevertheless, the characters explored also offer a degree of resistance, adopting
defensive attitudes, which, however, does not solve the problem. Neither can transpose
radically negative condition, usually faced by females.
