Resumo: The dramatic text can admit several political reflections, which are increased in intensity, as the text materializes in performance. In this article, we bring a critique of patriarchy, based on black feminism, gender studies and intersectionality. The play we have chosen is Fences (1985), a poignant text from African American literature created by playwright August Wilson (1945-2005). In the work, the protagonist Troy is bound by the American racist system, behaving according to the strict rules of Baseball. In the game, his wife Rose has little chance of winning. And it is precisely this reduced life for Rose that Wilson points out brilliantly, making it possible to conceive a critique of the family institution and of Western capitalist society, all sustained in patriarchy.

A esas reflexiones se añade intensidade, pues el texto se materializa en performances. En este artículo, traemos una crítica al patriarcado, basada en el feminismo negro, en los estudios de género y en la interseccionalidad. La obra de teatro escogida es Fences, de 1985, un texto pungente de la literatura norteamericana creada por el dramaturgo August Wilson (1945-2005). En la obra, el protagonista Troy se halla atado por el sistema racista americano, portándose según las reglas rígidas del béisbol. En el juego, la esposa Rose tiene poquísimas posibilidades de victoria. Y es exatamente esa vida reducida de Rose que Wilson apunta brillantemente, haciendo posible que concibamos una crítica a la institución de la familia y de la sociedad capitalista ocidental, sostenida en el patriarcado.O texto dramático pode admitir reflexões políticas variadas, acrescidas de intensidade, posto que o texto se materializa em performances. Neste artigo, trazemos uma crítica ao patriarcado fundamentada no feminismo negro, nos estudos de gênero e na interseccionalidade. A peça de teatro analisada é Um limite entre nós (em inglês, Fences), originalmente publicada em 1985, um texto pungente da literatura norte-americana criado pelo dramaturgo August Wilson (1945-2005). Na obra, o protagonista Troy encontra-se amarrado ao sistema racista americano, comportando-se conforme as regras rígidas do beisebol. No jogo, a esposa Rose tem pouquíssimas chances de vitória. Essa vida reduzida de Rose, apontada brilhantemente por Wilson, torna possível concebermos uma crítica à instituição da família e da sociedade capitalista ocidental sustentada no patriarcado.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2021-12-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/7244710.1590/1806-9584-2021v29n372447Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 29 No. 3 (2021)Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 29 Núm. 3 (2021)Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 29 n. 3 (2021)1806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/72447/47865Copyright (c) 2021 Revista Estudos Feministashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNakanishi, Débora SpaciniNigro, Cláudia Maria Ceneviva2021-12-10T17:47:38Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/72447Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:55.725677Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
