Cuenca literature, violence, women, cultureAbstract
This essay investigates the forms of violence that, within our Cuenca society, are exercised against women. These pernicious forms of social relations are expressed and expressed in the different literary discourses that have been produced in our letters.Literature is not a reflection -mirror type-of society; but art is a component of the social formation. This means that, in literature, certain features that belong to the social formation must be present in some way.Our objective is precisely that, to demonstrate and dismantle the form and content of these manifestations that allude directly and frontally, or barely veiled or slightly evaded, to the violence that has been and is being exercised against women. How is the discourse made visible regarding this notion of violence? Do you accept it as something natural or as a social practice that must be denounced, at least, or, what would be better, as a practice that must be urgently eliminated?
