OLIVEIRA, Geovana Quinalha de e SQUINELO, Ana Paula. War, invisibility, protagonism and female resistance in the novel Cunhataí. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.1, e83497. Epub 01-Jan-2023. ISSN 1806-9584. https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n183497.
Based on the analysis of the book Cunhataí: um romance da Guerra do Paraguai (2003), by Maria Filomena Bouissou Lepecki, this work aims to critically debate the eccentric place that official history assigned to women, in particular, in the space of the War of Paraguay/Guerra Guasu (1864-1870), scenario from which the plot is developed. The novel is undertaken here as an ethical, aesthetic and political cultural product that is constituted through a (re)visitation/(re)writing of the war episode from a female perspective, thus mobilizing other voices, other forms of being and feeling marked in these dissident bodies. From this perspective, our proposal is to present the historiographical debate around the Platine conflict in order to discuss how the literary fiction of Maria Filomena Bouissou Lepecki questions the official narrative of the Paraguayan War/Guasu War by making visible the role of women in this war conflict.
