Abstract(s)
Esta dissertação pretende registar e analisar memórias de quatro das muitas mulheres que
trabalharam na Empresa Industrial de Chapelaria de S. João da Madeira, no período compreendido
entre 1965 e 1996, data em que esta encerrou. Contempla práticas e trajetórias de resistência feminina em determinados contextos familiares, sociais, profissionais e políticos, sem negligenciar o significado que as informantes atribuem às mesmas.
Apresentando-se como uma fase de investigação preliminar de um futuro trabalho de doutoramento, no qual se pretende dar voz à mulher operária, tantas vezes esquecida ou silenciada, esta objetiva a constituição de um arquivo oral de testemunhos de vida e trabalho feminino na indústria da chapelaria de S. João da Madeira. Pretende-se, ainda, que os testemunhos organizados neste arquivo sejam alvo de uma análise e estudo de género, de modo a possibilitar a (re)escrita da história desta indústria, contemplando as vivências destas mulheres operárias.
Ambiciona-se, pois, expor a invisibilidade destas mulheres numa história que se declina(va) no masculino. Deseja-se, acima de tudo, que as suas vivências não sejam esquecidas e menosprezadas e que fiquem registadas para a posterioridade.
As narrativas das vivências destas mulheres constituem fontes principais de pesquisa desta dissertação, pois possibilitam a discussão sobre a representação da identidade cultural por meio da memória. Este estudo trata-se, portanto, de uma homenagem a todas as mulheres operárias da indústria da chapelaria.
This dissertation intends to record and analyze the memories of four of the many women who worked at the Empresa Industrial de Chapelaria at S. João da Madeira, in the period between 1965 and 1996, the date on which it closed. It considers practices and trajectories of female resistance in certain family, social, professional and political contexts, without neglecting the meaning that the informants attribute to these same practices. Presenting itself as a preliminary investigation phase of a future doctoral investigation, in which it is intended to give voice to the working woman, so often forgotten or silenced, this aims at the constitution of an oral archive of testimonies of women's life and work in the hat industry of S.João da Madeira. It is also intended that the testimonies organized in this archive are subject to gender analysis and study, in order to enable the (re)writing of the history of this industry, contemplating the experiences of these women workers. We aim to expose the invisibility of these women in a story that declines(d) in the masculine. We wish, above all, that their experiences are not forgotten and ignored and that they are saved for future generations. The narratives of these women experiences are the main sources of research for this dissertation, as they enable the discussion on the representation of cultural identity through memory. This study is, therefore, a tribute to all hat industry working women.
