摘要:Over the last decade, in whichbertsolaritzahas become one of the most significant cultural manifestations in the Basque Country, womenbertsolarishave themselves become a model of empowerment. Official records ofbertsolaritzadate back to the 15th century and womenbertsolarishave been singing since that era. However, up until the 20th century they were systematically consigned to oblivion. This paper aims to explore the image that has been created of women over the centuries. Before, women were the object ofbertsos(verses) sung by men, but now these are sung by both men and women. There are currently 200 womenbertsolarisand 25 of them have been selected to form discussion groups focusing on the image portrayed of women inbertsolaritza. These 25 viewpoints represent the elite of those women currently working in the field ofbertsolaritza.Their accounts were collected, transcribed and cross-referenced by nine researchers. Subsequently, they were classified and interpreted using the Nvivo 11 analysis system. The main conclusion is that it was womenbertsolariswho paved the way into changing the image of women from being passive objects to active subjects. Women have gone from being an , foreign and completely stereotypical theme of a masculine discourse to becoming a visible, flesh-and-blood, multi-faceted entity with these femalebertsolaris.
