I28-R145-10233_oai2025-11-17 Losada, Camila Losada, Camila 2021-12-01 This work aims to analyze the representations of female circus artists between the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Argentina, focusing on the tensions that configured their sex-generic identities and corporalities and on their dissonant ways of acting femininity, moreover, recovering and putting in value circus knowledge and practices that have been historically invisible from a gender perspective. Using archive material, testimonies and interviews, I reflect on the paradoxical intersection between patriarchal mandates and the spaces of freedom and resistance that the circus enabled for women, becoming challenging models for the time, in a context in which a conservative morality operated repressing sexuality and bodies and was beginning to be disputed by women and the first steps of feminism. Este trabajo se propone analizar las representaciones sobre las mujeres artistas circenses entre finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX en Argentina focalizando en las tensiones que configuraban sus identidades y corporalidades sexo-genéricas y en sus modos disonantes de actuar la feminidad, asimismo, recuperando y poniendo en valor saberes y prácticas circenses que han sido históricamente invisibilizados desde una perspectiva de género. A partir de material de archivo, testimonios y entrevistas reflexiono sobre el entrecruzamiento paradójico entre los mandatos patriarcales y los espacios de libertad y resistencia que el circo habilitó para las mujeres, convirtiéndose en modelos desafiantes para la época, en una coyuntura en la que operaba una moral conservadora que reprimía la sexualidad y los cuerpos y que comenzaba a ser disputada por las mujeres y los primeros pasos del feminismo. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/10233 10.34096/tdf.n34.10233 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/10233/9555 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/10233/9568 telondefondo.
