Abstract
Based, mainly, in Stuart Hall and Edward Said theories about world political division between East and West, along with the notions of hybridization of Nestor Canclini, I will use the comic books called Persepolis and Embroideries of iraian artist Marjane Satrapi - - which discusses the Iranian society and Iranian in a especific point of view, and the book of Australian journalist Geraldine Brooks, titled: Nine parts of desire: the hidden world of Islamic women to discuss ideas of these two authors about misleading perceptions and a hegemonic Western discourse about the of Islam. The body of the article comprises a cultural historical retrospective on the Islam, and subsequent a less Eurocentric discussion about the women, with focus on social interactions and the cultural particularities intrinsic to that society. The interest is to raise other stories about the situation of Muslim women, often told by the Western point of view.
