Abstract
The body, inseparable from the spirit, joins it and makes humans unique. Nonetheless, wars and sexist violence have hurt this cherished body. What place is left in a world obsessed with the cult of corporal values, for defiled, mutilated and broken bodies? Fulfilling its cathartic function over the population, the theater tries to answer this question. Through an extreme view of corporeality, playwright Laila Ripoll confronts the audience, in her works Once de marzo , Pronovias , El arbol de la esperanza , El triangulo azul , and La ciudad sitiada , with the bodies of mutilated women, raped, which men, war and society have abused. This paper analyze this problem and return the word to those heroic women, ignored by society, but still fighting tirelessly to accept their broken body, living with it and loving it.
