The rhetorical game has its origins in these recipients and interlocutors
of this work who have a familial bond, a friendship or literary tastes and political tendencies in common with the author. The author’s ironic and ambiguous attitude towards the concepts of feminine and masculine is closely linked to the atmosphere of playfulness in the Accademia degli Intronati and the complicity between its members, which allows double
engenders and a mock dialectical clash, in which the author represents his companions as characters of a farce, characterized by their misogynistic ideas that are “dicted” in the text to be “contradicted” by Piccolomini. The text thus develops under the sign of the splitting masculinity and femininity: courtly men versus vulgar men, virtuous women versus vicious
women within the context of idealised love against carnal love.

La struttura temporale-narrativa presente in Nella quiete del tempo di- venta l’espressione di un pluralismo che si cifra a livello simbolico di una costellazione di figure femminili indipendenti fra di loro ma, facenti parte delle manifestazioni della Grande Madre o del Gran Femminile5. In que- sto contesto, la differenza sessuale, «la più basilare e universale di tutte le differenze umane»6, diventa elemento fondamentale per la tessitura di unordine etico-politico più libero e giusto7, che non coinvolge soltanto le donne ma anche l’ambiente naturale in cui si muovono e agiscono.

del ‘mondo alla rovescia’ presenti nel Dialogo della bella creanza delle
donne (1539) di Alessandro Piccolomini, a partire della caratterizzazione
comica delle sue protagoniste. Raffaella e Margherita, hanno
tratti in comune con altri personaggi femminili della Commedia del
Cinquecento, entrando a far parte della schiera delle donne trasgressive,
insidiose e meretrici, con un ruolo importante nella rappresentazione
rinascimentale burlesca ed ironica. Raffaella interpreta il tipo
della mezzana e Margherita quello della malmaritata e il loro binomio
antitetico è costruito sullo spirito parodico che affonda le sue radici
nei riti sovversivi del Carnevale e del commento paradossale. Margherita
si trasforma in un doppio aberrante della moglie virtuosa, mentre
Raffaella è già una donna deformata, in quanto mezzana e prostituta.
Piccolomini gioca, dunque, sull’inversione che evidenzia i confini dei
ruoli sociali e di genere sfidando le regole della cultura del suo tempo.

centuries, are a scarcely known link of feminist ideas both in the context of
the Italian and European cultures, due to the lack of modern editions, critical
studies, and translations. This article deals with some theoretical and textual
issues related to this philosophical-literary debate, taking into consideration a
global perspective that includes both women and men writers. It also presents
a bibliographical review of the studies that have been carried out on this subject
internationally from its beginnings in the 1980s to the present day, in which
the plurality of approaches and the evolution of this field of study, which is still
under construction, can be appreciated.

L’atrio è un “luogo vuoto”, (“Perché era quasi privo di suppellettili”, ci dice Marisa Madieri), che si corrisponde con la “profondità del tempo”, che apre il secondo capitolo, un altro spazio vuoto, direbbe Ricoeur, da dove “poter volgere lo sguardo su di noi stessi” (Ricoeur, 1989: 58). Il luogo fisico, delimitato, dell’esplorazione sensoriale nella bambina, si trasforma in qualcosa senza confini “la profondità del tempo, nella donna”, che permette le scorribande del pensiero:

They are degraded characters who embody all the vices considered to be feminine and in whom the maternal inheritance determines their destiny and their moral depth, aggravated by a non-Christian ethnic origin. The picaras are shown to us as sexualised women in all their spheres of action: they carry out jobs directly or indirectly related to the sexual sphere, but also, by transgressing all the rules of behaviour and circulation imposed on women, they are going to identify themselves with prostitutes, in the broadest sense of women who wander into public spaces without any modesty. The cheeky ones will be window dressers, walkers, lovers of dancing or singing and, above all, loose tongues. The impudent character, which relates sexuality to their skilful use of language, is reflected in their condition as narrators of their own stories, but also in their characterisation as readers or writers.

"We hear your voices" is aimed at youth workers, media workers,
the young population, women, and immigrant communities and
has been developed over 10 months between 2020 and 2021.
Two of the main projects objectives are studying the phenomenon
of gender violence among the youth of Italy, Spain, Jordan, and
Palestine and being able to compare the main types of this
violence, that occur in these different socio-cultural contexts.
For this purpose, a questionnaire translated into Italian, Spanish
and Arabic, has been designed and addressed to people between 18
and 35 years old. The questionnaire has been distributed
throughout January and February 2021, through an online form
published on various social media platforms. Once all data was
collected, a description of the results has been made for each
country involved.
The second step was analyzing the results obtained by each
country and comparing the main typologies and characteristics of
the phenomenon.

The reworking and reinter- pretation of the Ariosto work by the Neapolitan women writer constitutes the epic piece of the Querelle, introducing fundamental topics within the debate on dignity and female excellence as ge- nealogy, sorority, auctoritas, defence against male attacks and the denunciation of violence against women that can be found in other previous and later women writers.

conocer una faceta olvidada de nuestra autora: la de crítico
literario militante, que practica este género literario partiendo de
presupuestos estéticos y políticos dictados por su condición de
escritora republicana exiliada.
ensayista onubense que gozó de cierta fama en los círculos
literarios de principio del siglo XX. Su obra, en prosa y en
versos, aparece en distintos periódicos de la época, entre ellos
La Correspondencia de España, La Alhambra y La Época, así
como las reseñas a sus relatos y las composiciones que le
dedicaron sus contemporáneos, como Antonio de Zayas y
Manuel Machado. Pese al reconocimiento que tuvo en esos
años, los estudios sobre la vida y la obra de Casilda de Antón

A voi soldati futuri dico la nostra guerra (1916)1 e Il figlio alla guerra (1917)2, ma la nostra attenzione si rivolge agli articoli e alle note pubblicati in diversi giornali negli anni del conflitto mondiale e nell’immediato dopoguerra. Adoperando gli strumenti concettuali della storia delle emozioni, il nostro intervento intende analizzare la retorica presente in questi brevi scritti che, per la loro intensità emotiva, presentano caratteristiche in comune con le lettere e cartoline spedite e dirette al fronte e con altri testi della propaganda politica
