| Summary: | The voices of rural women in this study narrate their lives from childhood to puberty to adolescence to adulthood to old age. Older women do not forget the events, conflicts, discrimination and acts of domestic violence experienced throughout their lives with their spouses. That is why we try to build unique and unforgettable histories both of the individuals and their communities. Histories of elderly women lived with inequality, discrimination, exclusions and disqualifications that are reflected in the theoretical and methodological aspects of the course of lives based on the testimonies of rural aging women. Lives linked to a historical continuum of real women and the domestic violence endured that translates into larger violence. |
