    La concepción y representación del cuerpo de la mujer en Occidente y en la tradición católica han estado marcadas por contradicciones y discursos de poder, que han dado como resultado' estructuras paradójicas que, aunque son injustas, suelen desplegar gran belleza. Justamente, en el poema del escritor brasileño Jorge de Lima, "Poema de qualquer virgem", objeto de este trabajo, se encuentra el cuerpo de una mujer, específicamente de una virgen, presentado paradójicamente a través del discurso hegemónico y religioso, por una voz poética masculina que se asombra ante la belleza de la contradicción.

    The conception and representation of the body of women in the West and in the Catholic tradition have been marked by contradictions and discourses of power, which have resulted in paradoxical structures which, although unjust, tend to display great beauty. Case in point, in the poem by Brazilian writer Jorge De Lima, "Poem de qualquer virgem", the object of this analysis, we find the body of a woman, specifically a virgin, paradoxically presented through hegemonic and religious discourse, by a masculine poetic voice that is amazed at the beauty of the contradiction.
