This has had repercussions in notable areas such as German literature, where, for hundreds of years, the female gender has been invisibilized, either in the role of writer or as a fictional character. Many times we did not have the chance to hear voices beyond the male ones and, therefore, we were left with a narrower perspective in the construction of different stories and characters. Thus, in that vast world made up of women of letters, lies one of the topics that has given us the most to talk about: The role that the character of the mother maintains within the family, a role that, in general, has been little delved into literary works written by men. In this article, then, we hypothesize that literature written by women contributes to think about the representation of mothers based on much more complex nuances; for example, the coexistence of a passive and active role around violence. In order to delve deeper into this idea, our corpus will be made-up of certain Novelles and other works written by Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, Marlen Haushofer and Elfriede Jelinek.   La escasa presencia de mujeres en el canon literario manejado habitualmente deriva de determinadas condiciones sociohistóricas. Esto ha repercutido en áreas notables como la literatura alemana donde, por cientos de años, el género femenino ha sido invisibilizado, ya sea en el rol de escritora o como personaje de ficción. Muchas veces no tuvimos posibilidades de escuchar voces más allá de las masculinas y, por ende, nos quedamos con una perspectiva más acotada en la construcción de diferentes historias y personajes. Es así que, en ese vasto mundo conformado por mujeres literatas, se halla uno de los tópicos que más ha dado para hablar: el rol que sostiene el personaje de la madre dentro de la familia. Un papel que, en general, ha sido poco profundizado en las obras literarias escritas por varones.  En este artículo, entonces, postulamos como hipótesis que la literatura escrita por mujeres contribuye a pensar la representación de las madres a partir de matices muchísimos más complejos: por ejemplo, la convivencia de un rol pasivo y activo en torno a la violencia. El corpus está conformado por algunas Novelles y otras obras pertenecientes a Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, Marlen Haushofer y Elfriede Jelinek, .   Universidad Nacional de Córdoba.
