Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the role of the cultural context in the (de)constitution of the feminine through the relationship between ‘baltazar”, the main character in valter hugo mãe’s work, o remorso de baltazar serapião, and his wife ‘ermesinda”. Within this perspective, it is possible to relate that (de)constitution with the concept proposed by Roy Wagner of culture as invention which, in mãe’s fictional world, becomes a key element to understand the feminine as a cultural construction.
