Women in Italy: Works
built 640 days ago
Manuela Arcuri was born in Anagni, not too far from Rome, and started as a model before becoming an actress and one of Italy's favourite calendar women. She's perhaps the most typical of Italy's sexy women - what with the television appearances, a footballer as an ex-boyfriend and plenty of work as a lingerie model! Manuela is a real beauty. Perhaps, a few more years at an acting school would have done the trick.

This volume offers a comprehensive historical account of writing by women in Italy. Covering writing from the Middle Ages to the present day, it moves away from narrow definitions of literature, and brings to light other forms of expression such as letter writing, religious and devotional writing, travel writing, and journalism. Contributors point to the considerable practical, social and ideological difficulties faced by women in writing and presenting their work to a wider reading public, but ... highlight the determination of women through the centuries in making their voices heard.
