italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies Dear Michela, For secondary sources on Ferrante (suggested by an earlier contributor) you may well know of the extensive exposure given to her work recently in the "New Yorker'. Ann Goldstein, whose translations of Ferrante have no doubt triggered some of these discussions, is an editor on this publication. Here is a link to one of a number of New Yorker reviews and comment pieces that may be of use: http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/knausgaard-or-ferrante?mbid=social_twitter buon lavoro, Pauline Small ________________________________________ From: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies [[log in to unmask]] on behalf of Annemarie Eskerod [[log in to unmask]] Sent: Monday, June 8, 2015 9:07 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [I-S] QUESTION: Representation of work in female-authored novels italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies I would suggest Casa Rossa by Francesca Marciano e Maria Giacobbe: Il Diario di una maestrina, Annemarie Eskerod Forskningsbibliotekar/Research librarian, MA Statsbiblioteket Universitetsbiblioteksområdet/University Library Division Universitetsparken 8000 Århus C Telf. 89462250 Mobil 22650072 From: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Paola Di Cori Sent: Monday, June 08, 2015 9:19 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [I-S] QUESTION: Representation of work in female-authored novels italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies darei un'occhiata anche a Silvia Avallone, "Acciaio"; e Elena Ferrante, "L'amica geniale" e anche "I giorni dell'abbandono"; Fausta Garavini, "Storie di donne"; tra quelli recenti.

Auguri 2015-06-07 17:42 GMT+02:00 Michela Prevedello <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>>: italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies Dear list members, I am contacting you as maybe some of you could help me with my research. I am doing research on Italian women writers of the 1970s and the present and I would like to investigate the representation of women’s work in the novels of these two periods. I am looking for novels written by women writers, in which the representation of work is connected to feminist/postfeminist issues. For the 1970s, for example, Maraini’s Donne in guerra, Guiducci’s Due donne da buttare. For the present (XXI century), for example, Murgia’s Il mondo deve sapere, or Ballestra’s Amiche mie. Any advice and suggestion related to primary and secondary sources would be extremely helpful for me. Please, contact me privately at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> in English/Italian Many thanks for your kindness Michela Prevedello University of Bristol (PhD candidate) ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: subscribe italian-studies YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To leave the list, send the message: unsubscribe italian-studies to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/italian-studies ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: subscribe italian-studies YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To leave the list, send the message: unsubscribe italian-studies to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/italian-studies ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: subscribe italian-studies YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> To leave the list, send the message: unsubscribe italian-studies to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/italian-studies ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: subscribe italian-studies YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask] To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask] To leave the list, send the message: unsubscribe italian-studies to: [log in to unmask] In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask] For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/italian-studies
