€17.00

The book is in Italian, the English version is expected to be published in the coming months

In co-edition with Pièdimosca edizioni www.piedimoscaedizioni.com

Twenty years after their first publication, I welcome the re-edition of Kate Chopin’s The Alphabetical Chromes and A Pair of Silk Stockings with pleasure and gratitude. This American writer is still not as well known as she should be, at least here in Italy. Beyond a few new translations of The Awakening and some short stories, a rich supply of monographic work on her entire oeuvre remains absent or insufficient. My essay had and has the intention of providing in-depth tools and connections for those who study and, at the same time, for those who encounter Kate Chopin for the first time. Having the journey and the viaticum available in one book seems to me a good opportunity.

Description

Focusing on works and personalities of qualitative excellence, with powerful originality and eccentric, subversive force, free from canons and rhetorics, I firmly believe, it is a civil, political, and artistic duty. In the course of my studies, my attention has mainly focused on female artists who, over the centuries, have in different but all-encompassing ways suffered injustices of marginalisation, underestimation, devaluation, even erasure. It is never an accident when an act of intellectual feminicide occurs […].

Kate Chopin has carved her nib in the diseased scabs of everyday social and relational life, especially in the cavities of the community, in those roots that preclude women’s rights and opportunities.
