Lugares de escuta e de acolhimento nas pesquisas sobre sertanidades

Abstract

This text proposes to map the emergence of a field of study that has been consolidating itself out of specific, individual research dealing with the relation between gender, women's history, and sertanidades(as practices and representations related to thesertão). In 2018 the ProjetAH research group wascreated, bringing together professors and students from different universities who in some way work in the academic field and/or in movements related to the theme. The group came to be a "listening space" for narratives and for the production of memories of women and the LGBTQI+ population. The field of study of gender, women and sertanidadesdialogues with post/decolonial theories and incorporates the concept of intersectionalities, rendering visible subjects historically absent from a historiography thatdid not consider marginalized individuals living in semi-arid territorialities.
