Abstract

This article intends to debate the notion of representation including the social, political and aesthetic aspects. The point of departure will be some feminists theories’ contributions to the concept of representation. Firstly, we will present some possible meanings of representation; then, in the second part, we will present the feminists’ critics to this concept; finally, we will work with some Gender Studies categories.
