R.Ricci A survey, taught in English but also valid for Italian languages credit for those who qualify to do reading and writing in Italian, of Italian cinema with emphasis placed on its relation to literature.

Visconti. Not offered in 2008-09

ITAL B235: The Italian Women's Movement
3.00 Credits
Haverford College
R.Ricci This course aims to dispel the amazement of those who wonder how feminism could have taken root in a country where, for centuries, women have been wearing black shawls and their public life has been limited to an appearance at mass. Emphasis will be put on Italian women writers and film directors, who are often left out of syllabi adhering to traditional canons. Topics to be explored are: the construction of gender, the relationship of writing to identity and subjectivity, the maternal discourse, and the continuity among women (mothers, daughters, and grandmothers).
