Resumo: We propose an analysis of Bertolt Brecht’s (1898-1956) A Santa Joana dos Matadouros (2009) through Pierre Bourdieu’s (1930-2002) concept of “symbolic violence”, demonstrating how this type of violence is utilized by the meat tycoons, specially by the antagonist, Pedro Paulo Bocarra, to justify their actions against the working class as represented in the brechtian drama. To briefly discuss the idea of symbolic violence, we resort to Bourdieu’s words on the essay “A codificação” (2004) and on the books Meditações pascalianas (2001) and A dominação masculina (2020). To substantiate the application of this extraliterary concept to Brecht’s play, we review the considerations of the brechtian critics about the epic theater and its deep dialogue with the social structures around it. Lastly, we analyze some excerpts from A Santa Joana dos Matadouros which, in our perspective, figure the capitalists’ symbolic violence against the working class.

Para a discussão sucinta da ideia de violência simbólica, recorremos às considerações de Bourdieu no ensaio “A codificação” (2004) e nos livros Meditações pascalianas (2001) e A dominação masculina (2020). Para fundamentar a aplicação desse conceito extraliterário à peça de Brecht, recapitulamos as considerações da crítica brechtiana sobre o teatro épico e seu diálogo profundo com as estruturas sociais que o cercam. Por fim, analisamos algumas passagens de A Santa Joana dos Matadouros que, a nosso ver, figuram violência simbólica dos capitalistas contra os trabalhadores.LitUniversidade Federal de Santa Maria2021-08-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/6390410.5902/1679849X63904Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 37 (2021): Literatura e Autoritarismo: História, violência, traumas1679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/63904/44549Copyright (c) 2021 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Octávio Henrique Chames dosFalleiros, Flávia2021-08-12T21:01:31Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/63904Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/indexPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/LA/oaigla@mail.ufsm.br||jlourique@pq.cnpq.br1679-849X1679-849Xopendoar:2021-08-12T21:01:31Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
