Female Cultural Production in Modern Italy
Author: Sharon HeckerPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031148169
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
This book is the first critical interdisciplinary examination in English of Italian women’s contributions to intellectual, artistic, and cultural production in modern Italy. Examining commonalities and diversities from the country’s Unification to today, the volume provides insight into the challenges that Italian women engaged in cultural production have faced, and the strategies they have deployed in order to achieve their objectives. The essays address a range of issues, from women’s self-identification and public ownership of their professional roles as laborers in the intellectual and cultural realm, to questions about motherhood and financial remuneration, to the role of creative foreign women in Italy. Through critical analysis and direct testimony from new and typically marginalized voices, including an Arab-Italian writer, an Italian-Dominican filmmaker, and a transgender activist, new forms of ongoing struggle emerge that redefine the culturally diverse landscape of female intellectual and creative production in Italy today. The volume rethinks a solely national “Made in Italy” reading of the subject of female intellectual labor, demonstrating instead the wide network of influences and relationships that have existed for Italian women in their professional aspirations.
Women's Writing in Italy, 1400–1650
Author: Virginia CoxPublisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 080189543X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
Winner, 2009 Best Book Award, Society for the Study of Early Modern WomenWinner, 2008 PROSE Award for Best Book in Language, Literature, and Linguistics. Professional and Scholarly Publishing Division of the Association of American Publishers This is the first comprehensive study of the remarkably rich tradition of women’s writing that flourished in Italy between the fifteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Virginia Cox documents this tradition and both explains its character and scope and offers a new hypothesis on the reasons for its emergence and decline. Cox combines fresh scholarship with a revisionist argument that overturns existing historical paradigms for the chronology of early modern Italian women’s writing and questions the historiographical commonplace that the tradition was brought to an end by the Counter Reformation. Using a comparative analysis of women's activities as artists, musicians, composers, and actresses, Cox locates women's writing in its broader contexts and considers how gender reflects and reinvents conventional narratives of literary change.

Author: The GAM/DP Theory of Personality and Creativity
Author: William A. TherivelPublisher: Kirk House Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
The societal effects of the long-term impact of the Division of Power (DP) or Unity of Power (UP) are discussed in this volume. The DP chapters compare the three Griselda stories. The GAM chapters specifically refer to the personality families identified in Volume I (2001) and to the creative potential which comes from a high GxAxM of youth. The theory presented in these volumes is in two parts. The first, GAM, identifies and illustrates the three factors (Genetic endowment, Assistances, and Misfortunes) which contribute to personality and creativity at the individual level. The second, DP (Division of Power), does the same at the societal level.
