This volume investigates the ways in which Italian women writers,
filmmakers, and performers have represented female identity across
genres from the immediate post-World War II period to the turn of
the twenty-first century. Considering genres such as prose, poetry,
drama, and film, these essays examine the vision of female agency
and self-actualization arising from women artists' critique of
female identity. This dual approach reveals unique interpretations
of womanhood in Italy spanning more than fifty years, while also
providing a deep investigation of the manipulation of canvases
historically centered on the male subject. With its unique coupling
of generic and thematic concerns, the volume contributes to the
ever expanding female artistic legacy, and to our understanding of
postwar Italian women's evolving relationship to the narration of
history, gender roles, and these artists' use and revision of
generic convention to communicate their vision.
