Social Construction of Gender and Identity in Persepolis

Abstract

This text shows the need to recognize that any type of repression experienced today by women has patriarchal roots. Trying to emphasize these questions, one makes a return to the possible principles of the stigmatization charged by the figure of the woman in the nineteenth century, as in the current and brings female characters from the graphic novel that dialogue with the deconstruction that is sought in the contemporary. The analysis of these characters in the Persepolis comic, highlighting important points such as their stories and life trajectories, how each dealt with situations in which they were confronted by being women. These positions are debated with valuable thoughts from important theoreticians and scholars of "being woman" in society, both in the early days of the struggle for the importance of education and the search for the existence of women as autonomous, as well as issues involving harassment and femicide, currently discussed. Studying Persepolis and their characters contributes to the demystification of what has been created socially about the woman's "femininity" and her destiny to be linked to marriage; submission and reduction of their "self" to live in society.
