| Sumario: | This paper examines conflicts of minor rank, crossed emotions, disruption of the moral order and private miseries that transcended the public sphere and involuntarily involved the girls of Buenos Aires from the time of the Colony. To enlighten this problem we appeal to a suggestivesource such as the judicial archives, as it show a fleeting and circumstantial cut in the lives of the social subjects that were involved but nevertheless allow to approach an universe of values and a sense of order in that social context. It’s interesting to investigate events or situations in which girls and young women were involuntarily involved, giving an account of a subalternity traversed by their gender, age and social origin. The type of sources analyzed reveal, problematize and make it possible to reflect on the most extreme features of heteropatriarchal domination. At the same time, it’s feasible to detect those interstices left by the justice system to demand reparation against the abuse and cruelty carried out on those girls. |
