Acesso em: 13 jan. 2023.e- 1981-4674http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/21798This article intends to investigate how the representation of the female characters takes place in three short stories from O leopardo é um animal delicado (1998), by the writer Marina Colasanti. To attain the proposed objective, we have done a bibliographic research, whose analysis focuses on the female protagonists of the short stories “Menina de vermelho a caminho da lua”, “O leopardo é um animal delicado” and “Amor e morte na página dezessete”, assuming that they were created by a woman writer –or a writing woman. Thereby, the reading of those texts, seeking to analyze the matters that concerns the inscriptions of the female body, is guided by the nature/culture dualism and theorical-critical studies that look into questions related to gender. For this purpose, we have hold on the theorical-critical assumptions of Elaine Showalter (1978), Lúcia Osana Zolin (2010), Rita Terezinha Schmidt (2016) and Peggy Sharpe (1997)porAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Literatura de autoria femininaMarina ColasantiCorpo femininoSexualidadeWomen’s writingFemale bodySexualityArtigohttps://doi.org/10.48075/rt.v15i36.22314
