WERMAN, Anna. Gender-Based Violence in Jorge Díaz’s Canción de cuna para un anarquista. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2022, vol.30, n.3, e79706.  Epub Sep 01, 2022. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2022v30n379706.

The article discusses the concept of violence and gender inequality in Jorge Díaz's Canción de cuna para un anarquista (2003). Domestic violence is perceived as a social problem whose dimension owes to the use of cultural violence legitimized by the repressive society. The study of the categories of character, action, time, and space in Canción de cuna para un anarquista reveals a high degree of semantization, which enables the appearance of such thematic motifs as the dialectics between life and death, inside/outside, before/after; the image of a repressive society, individual or shared loneliness, and the theme of the reinvention of the past. All of them bear a remarkable resemblance to the dramatic aesthetics of Luigi Pirandello.

Keywords : Jorge Diaz; Canción de cuna para un anarquista; Violence against women; Gender inequality; Repressive society.
