Patriarchalism in “Gabriela, cravo e canela”: the shattering of the radical ideological ritual
Keywords:
Society, patriarchalism, sexism, woman, desidentification.Abstract
This article aims to profile Malvina, Gabriela and Nacib from Gabriela, cravo e canela by Jorge Amado as subversive by means of observing how these three characters broke with the sexist discourse affiliated to the patriarchal ideology which was circulated and, consequently, preserved in the social-historic conjecture they lived in. Besides, we intend to relate these characters` subversity to the desidentification process approached by Pêcheux (1995). By means of Discourse Analysis (hereafter DA) concepts, we will evince not only Malvina, Gabriela and Nacib`s desidentification but also the one of the Ilheenses citizens(-subjects). In order to lay the foundation on literature, society and patriarchalism, we will mainly use Freyre (2003) and Candido (1951; 1999; 2006a; 2006b); for the DA, we will mention Pêcheux (1995), Althusser (1976), among others.Downloads
