In deeply Catholic Poland, domestic violence (DV) is often denied, downplayed, or justified, hindering its recognition as a pressing societal issue. This study addresses the scarcity of research on the experiences and recovery of Polish women from DV. Through feminist interviews with 13 women in Norway and Poland who survived DV, our findings reveal a complex entanglement of embodied experiences with history, religion, society, and gender hierarchies during their recovery processes. Participants emphasized the significance of "body works," such as running and using makeup, as essential for empowerment and regaining control of their battered bodies and minds.
在天主教氛围浓厚的波兰，家庭暴力常常被否认、淡化或合理化，这阻碍了其被视为一个紧迫的社会问题。本研究针对波兰女性遭受家庭暴力后的经历及恢复情况的研究匮乏这一问题展开。通过对挪威和波兰的13名曾遭受家庭暴力的女性进行女权主义访谈，我们的研究结果揭示了她们在恢复过程中，身体体验与历史、宗教、社会及性别等级制度之间存在着复杂的交织。参与者强调“身体活动”的重要性，比如跑步和化妆，这些对于她们获得力量以及重新掌控受虐的身心至关重要。
