Trapos que aconchegam: o envelhecimento feminino em Lygia Fagundes Telles by Márcia Regina Schwertner, Roseli Bodnar

“…Para la elaboración del artículo, fueron investigados textos de Simone de Beauvoir, Ecléa Bosi y Robert Burtler, publicados en las décadas del 60 y 70, pero aún hoy referencias en el estudio de la vejez, y obras de publicación más reciente, entre otras, las de Guita Debert, António Fonseca, Miriam Goldenberg y Sibila Marques. Se concluye que la visión negativa de la vejez aún si está fuertemente enraizada, ya se ha comprobado como equívoca y que los estereotipos excluyentes empiezan a ser sustituidos por un cambio gradual de perspectiva, resultante también de la ampliación de las investigaciones en el área, que engloban diferentes sectores, métodos y líneas de pensamiento, enfatizando la variedad e inconclusividad de las definiciones sobre el tema.…”
