Corpos ultrajados e suas representações em crônicas de Ana Paula Tavares
Abstract
The dissertation aims to analyze the representations of the female body in the chronicles of Angolan Writer Ana Paula Tavares, gathered in A cabeça de Salomé (2004). From the theoretical discussions about the concept of body, elucidating the writings of women authors in Angola as outraged bodies (subaltern, uncommon, foreigners, handicapped, unruly, insurgent or minority), we intend to develop a deeper look in the prose of Ana Paula Tavares, and how a feminine bodily representation
appears and could be treated.
