Beskrivelse af This Body That Inhabits Me
A collection of essays on the mysteries of the body from one of Italyâ¿s leading postwar communist intellectuals. Politician, translator, and journalist Rossana Rossanda was the most important female left-wing intellectual in post-war Italy. Central to the Italian Communist Partyâ¿s cultural wing during the 1950s and â¿60s, she left an indelible mark on the life of the mind. The essays in this volume, however, bring together Rossandaâ¿s reflections on the bodyâ¿how it ages, how it is gendered, what it means to examine oneâ¿s own body. The product of a decades-long dialogue with the Italian womenâ¿s movement (above all with Lea Melandri, a vital feminist writer who provides an afterword to the current volume), these essays represent an honest and raw meeting between communist and feminist thought. Ranging from reflections on her own hands through to Chinese cinema, from figures such as the Russian cross-dressing soldier Nadezhda Durova to the Jacobin revolutionary Theroigne de Mericourt, here we see Rossandaâ¿s fierce intellect and extraordinary breadth of knowledge applied to the body as a central question of human experience.
