We will try to think the “amancebamiento” (fact union) as an extended tool for the reproduction of the social hierarchical order under the colonial regime, and how it remained as a support of inequality (and deep injustice) between men and women, being this last ones object of systematic abuse.

Trataremos de pensar al amancebamiento como herramienta extendida de reproducción del orden jerárquico social bajo el régimen colonial y cómo posteriormente se mantuvo como sostén de la desigualdad (y profunda inequidad) entre hombres y mujeres, siendo estas últimas, objeto de abuso sistematizado. El abanico de posibilidades de elección que tenían ciertos hombres los colocaba en lugares de completo poder y a las mujeres, en posiciones de debilidad y vulnerabilidad de las que, en principio, les era casi imposible salir. Para dar cuenta de esto se utilizará la novela Cecilia Valdés, escrita por Cirilo Villaverde y publicada en el año 1839: melodrama que trata y desarrolla el vínculo romántico afectivo (clandestino) entre una mulata y un hijo de español.  Facultad de Humanidades y Artes.
