Resumo: | In this article, I show how, in a backwoods town of Minas Gerais, the women’s management practices in the kitchen and their worry about events of the body are central to the way in which social relations are conceived. I suggest that the local expression “mexida de cozinha” (kitchen’s business and kitchen’s movement) reveals a mode of action and movement that put on continuity physiological and social processes. The matter of food offers then a peculiar way of thinking about the social system. |

Como sugere a expressão local “mexida de cozinha”, há, no preparo da comida e naadministração da casa, uma experiência diária de intervenção, por parte da mulher, sobreinterações vitais e transformadoras do corpo. Argumento que isto coloca em continuidadeprocessos sociais e fisiológicos, dando forma a um modelo nativo de “sistema social”.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2017-05-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionEtnografiaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/3859210.1590/%xRevista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 25 No. 2 (2017); 707-731Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 25 Núm. 2 (2017); 707-731Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 25 n. 2 (2017); 707-7311806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/38592/34194Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCerqueira, Ana Carneiro2018-04-24T14:27:00Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/38592Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:25.214549Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true |
