CRITICISMO LITERÁRIO FEMINISTA: PARA ALÉM DO TERRITÓRIO SELVAGEM

Abstract

My aim in this article is to discuss feminist literary criticism, a study proposed by Dona Perry, in addition to making an apparatus of small considerations about Elaine Showalter's theory, by highlighting literary criticism as a “wild territory”. I also use the analysis of the poem “Exame”, by Luzia Neto Jorge, Portuguese poet, within the parameters proposed to break with the canon and denounce gender relations.
