Summary "O que fazem mulheres: Romance philosophico" by Camilo Castelo Branco is a philosophical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative deals with the complexities of women's lives and their societal roles, focusing on the character of Ludovina, a young woman navigating the expectations of marriage and personal desires amidst familial pressures. At the start of the story, we find Ludovina in conversation with her mother, D. Angelica, discussing a proposed marriage that she has not yet fully accepted. The dialogue reveals Ludovina's internal struggle between familial duty and personal feelings, as she expresses her concerns about marrying a man chosen for her without her consent. The introduction showcases the contrasting perspectives on love, duty, and societal expectations while hinting at Ludovina's deeper affections and conflicts involving another man, Ricardo de Sá, who embodies the spirit of youthful love but lacks the security and stability her parents desire for her. The opening sets the tone for a narrative that explores the roles of women and the complexity of their choices within the confines of 19th-century Portuguese society.
