Abstract:

This study is dedicated, through life stories, to analyzing violence against women living in rural contexts, its silencing and the challenges of breaking it. This is a qualitative research based on 20 interviews with rural women in two municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul. Through Narrative Analysis we arrived at two categories: “I suffered in silence and certainly every woman is like that” - Violence and silencing; and “We take care of her” - Breaking the silence. The first makes reference to the oppression of silencing and how women were affected through violence and isolation. The second presents the challenges faced by women when breaking the silencing and leaving the abusive relationship, and how, through their narratives, we access the stories of other women who suffer violence. The narratives reinforce that the silencing, arisinggender roles and the restriction of freedom, contributed to the permanence in the abusive relationship. Violence was sustained in the rural context, in which women were even more isolated and alone, accentuating their fears, guilt, shame, financial dependence and lack of support. It is essential to have an intersectoral work to face this problem with more information and assistance to rural women.
