Resumo: This essay is composed of two sections which are intended to establish a firm dialogue with each other. In the first one we reflect upon the iconic image of Salazar as the ‘great moral chief of the nation’, the ‘desired savior’, as largely constructed and disseminated by António Ferro, social ideologue and ‘mentor’ of Salazar in matters of culture. We further discuss the ideology of the Estado Novo as closely intertwined with a ‘discourse of domesticity’,and firmly anchored in a double premise: gender manipulation and the complicity of women. In the second part of this essay, we present as case study the work of Paula Rego in the 1960s and 1970s, as apowerfulinstance of women’s creative resilience, strategically combining social, aesthetic and political confrontationof the ruling order.

Discute-se em primeiro lugar a imagem icónica de Salazar enquanto ‘salvador moral da pátria’, incarnando a figura do ‘Desejado’, tal como construída e amplamente disseminada pela ideologia do Estado Novo, tendo António Ferro como seu principal mentor e ideólogo cultural. Discute-se de seguida o modo como o ‘discurso da domesticidade’, profundamente ancorado numa dupla premissa –a manipulação de género e a cumplicidade das mulheres –se constituiu como uma ideologia fundamental de sustentação do Estado Novo. Na segunda parte deste ensaio apresentamos um estudo de caso, a obra da pintora Paula Rego criada ao longo dos anos 1960 e 1970, a qual, com acutilância satírica e política, desconstrói, expõe e confronta essa mesma ideologia do poder instituído.CEHUM2020-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.21814/diacritica.564https://doi.org/10.21814/diacritica.564Diacrítica; Vol. 34 N.º 2 (2020): WOMANART - Mulheres, Artes e Ditadura: Os casos de Portugal, Brasil e Países Africanos de Língua Portuguesa; 77-91Diacrítica; Vol. 34 No. 2 (2020): WOMANART - Women, Arts and Dictatorship: The cases of Portugal, Brazil and Portuguese speaking African countries; 77-912183-91740870-896710.21814/diacritica.34.2reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.uminho.pt/index.php/diacritica/article/view/4982https://revistas.uminho.pt/index.php/diacritica/article/view/4982/5603Direitos de Autor (c) 2023 Ana Gabriela Macedoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMacedo, Ana Gabriela2023-07-28T07:47:40Zoai:journals.uminho.pt:article/4982Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:34:37.456056Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
