Abstract:
This undergraduate thesis aims to present an analysis from the cultural history and
the study of gender about the conflicts occurred during the realization of the festivities
known as "Forró" in the rural areas around the country of Pombal - PB, during the years
1960 to 1980. We analyzed the gender relations exercised in rural festivals and the
physical and symbolic violence suffered by women at that time. We studied the social
codes that triggered the practices of violence against women in a public space intended
to relax, investigating how the relationships between women and men occurred in the
middle of the 20th century.
