This is understood as any action that causes death, damage or physical, sexual or psychological suffering that occurred in the home, or committed by a spouse, partner, lover or ex-boyfriends out of that setting. It has constituted a serious violation of human rights with serious consequences for women’s physical and emotional health. Statistics have shown that despite advances in this field, it is still high number of people living in this condition. These figures have highlighted the need for ongoing discussions in order to search strategies and policies to prevent and confront this form of violence and to support the battered woman. To support these reflections, we need to know better who are the women who live in this situation, ask what is important to them, as well as what they think about the condition in which they live and what are your wishes and dreams. Such listening means going beyond a welfare practice, since it grants them a place other than the victims, considering them as subjects who can tell yourself. It is thus a qualitative study that seeks to understand the experience of these women in on the relationship of domestic violence they experience. Access to narratives are given by conducting workshops in which were used writings, drawings and/or magazine clippings chosen by women, to trigger talk about their stories. After the production of reports, the material of the workshops was analyzed by Gadamer's hermeneutics - that aims the language at the center of the subject's experience with each other, within a historicity demarcated by time and space - in conjunction with the relational perspective on domestic violence. The analysis in addition to confirming the importance of listening to the subjective aspects highlighted the importance that the partners have occupied in the lives of women, highlighting the difficulty they have to break with the violence and to articulate strategies that enable changes in their livesAcesso AbertoViolência contra as mulheresCrime contra as mulheresViolência domésticaRelatos autobiográficosmasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::PSICOLOGIA
