Abstract
Abstract This article seeks to unveil the many narrative, graphic and formal layers that give rise to the forensics reports on rape and sexual assault crimes, produced by the Legal Medical Institute of Campinas ( Instituto Médico Legal - IML), between 2004 and 2005. Therefore, I start from the graphic model that shapes these papers – its layout-form – to gradually show the narrative formula contained in them: pieces of flesh . Finally, by following these paths, I intend to show how the criminal materiality of rape and sexual assault is confused with the materiality of the sex of girls, boys and women who are taken care of at this institution.
期刊介绍:
Cadernos Pagu was founded in 1993 and since then has contributed to the consolidation of gender studies in Brazil. The journal was created in a period when gender studies gained certain academic legitimacy in the country, and it intended to further its visibility, diffusing and stimulating knowledge production in this field. Cadernos Pagu resulted from more than two years of intense readings, researches and debates among the members of the Center for Gender Studies Pagu, analyzing gender theories developments and stalemates. The first issue was completely written by Pagu"s research members, and their articles expressed those concerns. Throughout the second and third issues, the journal redefined its editorial policies, opening to contributions from Brazilian and foreign researchers.
