Donne di Carta
La scrittura delle donne nella Letteratura italiana

The volume includes the contributions of Italian and foreign scholars who participated on May 29 and 30, 2023 in the international conference of studies Donne di carta. La scrittura delle donne nella letteratura italiana, held in Naples, at the headquarters of the Department of Humanistic Studies of the University of Naples, Federico II. The essays draw a diachronic map of the contribution of the writing of female authors to Italian Literature, from the Origins to the Contemporary.
Freeing the interest in women's writing from the fashions of the moment and from a certain drift of Gender studies, especially in the international context, the volume intends to contribute to the necessary rewriting of the Canon of our literary tradition, welcoming female authorial figures, who, over the centuries, have, with their works, written the history of many literary genres.
