As preciosas e a constituição de autoria feminina dos contos de fadas.

Abstract

Fairy tales have been consolidated over the centuries and continue to enchant and teach people from different cultures, generations and times. These stories were formed over a long period of time under the influence of different cultures, initially being exclusively part of the oral tradition. Charles Perrault, Hans Cristian Andersen and the Brothers Grimm are cited as the main compilers and storytellers. However, it should be noted that several women were also historically involved in the process of storytelling and writing of fairy tales and the Precious movement, which was composed by a group of women writers in France in the 17th and 18th centuries, offers rich contributions to the understanding of this theme. Based on the need to understand the space that these women occupied in the process of constitution and socialization of fairy tales, a bibliographical, qualitative and exploratory research was developed. The discussion was based on the theoretical support of several authors, among them: Ventura (2019) Warner (1999) and Perrot (2019). This discussion has a great relevance in contemporary times because it exposes the historical silencing imposed on women and values their important contribution to the consolidation of tales, as always.
