Bertsolari women, agents in their appears into the public scene
Keywords:
bertsolaris, agency, empowerment, body, improvisationAbstract
Bertsolarism is associated with the masculine and the public. More precisely with the square, a hegemonic place of Basque culture (González Abrisketa, 2013), where the ball is played, politicians speak and improvise and sing the Bertsolaris. Oral improvisation was for centuries natural practice of women and Basque men, but with the changes that took place in the nineteenth century, which prevailed public places - the square - instead of the interiors, women withdrew until they almost disappeared. Not quite, because they timidly made their way into that world of men. This work theorizes about subaltern voices; on the empowerment of Bertsolaris women, who went from invisible to notorious. Also of agency, indispensable in the empowerment of women (Murguialday, 2013; León, 2013). To find out the emergence of the Bertsolaris until the acquisition of the agency in recent decades, 200 questionnaires were passed to these women and interviews were also conducted with 36 of the people surveyed.
