Resumo: The article focuses on Cláudia Lage's short story “Uma alegria”, in order to examine the barriers, prejudices and (im)possibilities that involve female sexuality in old age. As will be seen, the short story challenges the taboos surrounding old age, especially with regard to the common sense that considers old people as asexual, devoid of desire, or incapable of feeling and provoking pleasure. In addition, it shows that contemporary Brazilian literature, especially female authorship, has promoted new views and protagonism, in addition to those already consolidated. The contributions of Simone de Beauvoir (1990; 2016), Eurídice Figueiredo (2020), Elódia Xavier (2021), Mirian Goldenberg (2012) and Alda Britto da Motta (2011), among others, support the analyses.

Conforme se verificará, o conto põe em xeque os tabus em torno do envelhecer, especialmente no que diz respeito ao senso comum que considera as pessoas velhas como assexuadas, isentas de desejo, ou incapazes de sentir e provocar prazer. Além disso, mostra que a literatura brasileira contemporânea, sobretudo de autoria feminina, tem promovido novos olhares e protagonismos, para além daqueles já consolidados. As contribuições de Simone de Beauvoir (1990; 2016), Eurídice Figueiredo (2020), Elódia Xavier (2021), Mirian Goldenberg (2012) e Alda Britto da Motta (2011), entre outras, dão suporte às análises.UFRGS (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul)2024-03-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/cadernosdoil/article/view/13458710.22456/2236-6385.134587Cadernos do IL; n. 66 (2023); 42-582236-6385reponame:Cadernos do IL (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/cadernosdoil/article/view/134587/91575Copyright (c) 2024 Cristiane da Silva Alveshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlves, Cristiane da Silva2024-03-26T13:44:39Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/134587Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/cadernosdoil/PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/cadernosdoil/oaicadiletras@gmail.com||cadernosdoil@ufrgs.br||cadiletras@gmail.com|| cadernosdoil@ufrgs.br2236-63850104-1886opendoar:2024-03-26T13:44:39Cadernos do IL (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
