Imagens da mulher no ocidente moderno

Abstract

The thesis goes back to the genesis of the image of the woman in the Modern Western era. A process in which we observe the transition of stereotypies, sometimes stigmatizing, sometimes idealized, of the woman giving place throughout the nineteenth and twentieth century to the "incarnated" woman _ with individualized faces and personalities that gradually appropriated from herself image. The woman passes "from a character to a person". Therefore, I wonder at what extent we witnessed the breakdown with stereotypes or just observed the creation of a new kind of stereotyping. To answer this and others questions it was important to seriate them. Bring them together. Align them. So, if the images that I present here are widely known, it is necessary to think them together, over the long series that relates and tensions them within the social process in which they are formed and in which they in large part conform it. This contend with images brings unexpected sociological elucidations, to the extent that the reassembly involves not only a relationship among images, but puts inset other factors: actors, social groups, their recognition disputes, historical processes, communication technologies and structures of feelings. That is the reason why I propose a Sociogenesis of the Image. A not evolutionary vision, but rather then a procedural one, where there are mutual contamination, continuity, assimilation, hybridization and, why not, a rupture between those images and languages. A study especially attentive to illustrate how the growing importance of human image _ gradually individualized _ witnesses and introduces new forms of social organization and integration.

“…Embora não controle seus usos, Luz participava ativamente da produção de suas imagens. De certo modo, corrobora o argumento deAnchieta (2019).…”
