Resumo: In the Portuguese society of the Old Regime, sex between women was susceptible tothe death penalty at the stake and, as a mixed crime, was also under the jurisdiction of theInquisition Tribunal. The objective of this study is to analyze the inquisitorial process of the young Clara Fernandes sentenced, in 1556, by sodomy foeminarum. Although married and the mother of three children, Clara’s attitudes express an unconstrained sexual desire for women. Tormented by her “guilts” sought pardon of the Holy Office, but found the “justice” of an inclement Tribunal.

O objetivo deste estudo é analisar o processo inquisitorial da jovem Clara Fernandes, sentenciada em 1556 por sodomia foeminarum. Apesar de casada e mãe de três filhos, as atitudes de Clara externam um incontido desejo sexual por mulheres. Atormentada por suas “culpas”, buscou o perdão do Santo Ofício, mas encontrou a “justiça” de um Tribunalinclemente.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2018-11-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAnálise micro-históricaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/4878710.1590/%xRevista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 26 No. 3 (2018)Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 26 Núm. 3 (2018)Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 26 n. 3 (2018)1806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/48787/37603Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Ronaldo Manoel2018-11-28T15:59:17Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/48787Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:38:37.731621Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
