Four women, four songs: The representation of the feminine stereotype in Chico Buarque's poetry

Abstract

The paper aimed to analyze the representation of the feminine stereotype in four feminine songs of Chico Buarque's work, taking the lyrics into account, as well as the arrangements and intonations. They are: “Com açúcar, com afeto”; “Olhos nos olhos”; “Folhetim" and “Se eu soubesse”. At the end, one can conclude that in spite of society having changed since the first to the last song, the representation of women remained similar.
