Resumo: | In the field of historiography, when we have representations about women, they are created, most of the time, by the opposite gender, the male. Suetonius - in his work "Lives of the Caesars", composed in the year 121 AD, during the rule of Emperor Hadrian - when describing Agrippina the Younger, makes clear the weight of the symbolic aspect that male domination carries when questioning a woman's morals who played roles considered masculine within politics. To understand this relationship of male domination over the female - constructed historically, culturally and linguistically - it is necessary to define the submission imposed on women as symbolic violence. This article aims to understand the role of women in politics in the period of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, based on the problematization of the relationship between the female and the male. More specifically, it is through the analysis of episodes in the work of Suetonius and other ancient authors - such as the choice of Agrippina as the wife of Emperor Claudius, his death, his succession and the death of Agrippina Minor - that we can bring to light the way in which the male gaze often dehumanizes, disregards and delegitimizes the role of women in history. |

AGRIPPINA THE YOUNGER IN SUETONIUS:: THE MALE GAZE ON FEMALE PROTAGONISMAGRIPINA MENOR EM SUETÔNIO:: O OLHAR MASCULINO SOBRE O PROTAGONISMO FEMININOIn the field of historiography, when we have representations about women, they are created, most of the time, by the opposite gender, the male. Suetonius - in his work "Lives of the Caesars", composed in the year 121 AD, during the rule of Emperor Hadrian - when describing Agrippina the Younger, makes clear the weight of the symbolic aspect that male domination carries when questioning a woman's morals who played roles considered masculine within politics. To understand this relationship of male domination over the female - constructed historically, culturally and linguistically - it is necessary to define the submission imposed on women as symbolic violence. This article aims to understand the role of women in politics in the period of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, based on the problematization of the relationship between the female and the male. More specifically, it is through the analysis of episodes in the work of Suetonius and other ancient authors - such as the choice of Agrippina as the wife of Emperor Claudius, his death, his succession and the death of Agrippina Minor - that we can bring to light the way in which the male gaze often dehumanizes, disregards and delegitimizes the role of women in history.No campo da historiografia quando possuímos representações sobre as mulheres, essas são criadas, na maioria das vezes, pelo gênero oposto, o masculino. Suetônio - em sua obra “A Vida dos Doze Césares”, composta no ano 121 d.C., durante o governo do imperador Adriano - ao descrever Agripina Menor, deixa claro o peso do aspecto simbólico que a dominação masculina carrega ao questionar a moral de uma mulher que exerceu papéis considerados masculinos dentro da política. Para compreender essa relação de dominação masculina sobre o feminino - construída histórica, cultural e linguisticamente – é preciso definir a submissão imposta às mulheres como uma violência simbólica. O presente artigo busca compreender a atuação feminina na política no período da dinastia Júlio-Claudiana, a partir da problematização da relação entre o feminino e o masculino. Mais especificamente, é através da análise de episódios da obra de Suetônio e outros autores antigos - como a escolha de Agripina como esposa do imperador Cláudio, a morte deste, sua sucessão e a morte de Agripina Menor - que podemos trazer à tona a forma como o olhar masculino, muitas vezes, desumaniza, desconsidera e deslegitima o papel da mulher na História.ABEC2022-08-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.franca.unesp.br/index.php/historiaecultura/article/view/355710.18223/hiscult.v11i1.3557História e Cultura (History and Culture); Vol. 11 No. 1 (2022): HISTÓRIA, ARQUIVOS E MULHERES: PERSPECTIVAS INTERDISCIPLINARES; 22-46História e Cultura; Vol. 11 Núm. 1 (2022): HISTÓRIA, ARQUIVOS E MULHERES: PERSPECTIVAS INTERDISCIPLINARES; 22-46História e Cultura (Histoire et Culture); Vol. 11 No. 1 (2022): HISTÓRIA, ARQUIVOS E MULHERES: PERSPECTIVAS INTERDISCIPLINARES; 22-46História e Cultura; v. 11 n. 1 (2022): HISTÓRIA, ARQUIVOS E MULHERES: PERSPECTIVAS INTERDISCIPLINARES; 22-462238-62702238-627010.18223/hiscult.v11i1reponame:História e Culturainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://ojs.franca.unesp.br/index.php/historiaecultura/article/view/3557/316910.18223/hiscult.v11i1.3557.g3169Pissinatti, Isabelainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-09-02T13:56:22Zoai:ojs.franca.unesp.br:article/3557Revistahttp://seer.franca.unesp.br/index.php/historiaecultura/indexPUBhttps://ojs.franca.unesp.br/index.php/historiaecultura/oai||revistahistoriaecultura@franca.unesp.br2238-62702238-6270opendoar:2022-09-02T13:56:22História e Cultura - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false |
