A collection of essays on the mysteries of the body from one of Italy’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 Party’s cultural wing during the 1950s and ’60s, she left an indelible mark on the life of the mind. The essays in this volume, however, bring together Rossanda’s reflections on the body—how it ages, how it is gendered, what it means to examine one’s own body. The product of a decades-long dialogue with the Italian women’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 Rossanda’s fierce intellect and extraordinary breadth of knowledge applied to the body as a central question of human experience.

"e;No se mata por amor, es cierto, sin embargo en todo esto el amor tiene algo que ver, ya que quienes matan son los maridos, los novios, los amantes, los hombres en general que han tenido una relacion intima con la victima."e; Este libro parte de una constatacion incomoda: los vinculos mas intimos cargan con huellas de poder, desigualdad y conflicto. Figura central del feminismo italiano, Lea Melandri recupera decadas de reflexion sobre la relacion entre los sexos y la experiencia concreta de las mujeres cuestionando las jerarquias naturalizadas. Aborda la educacion sentimental, las fantasias amorosas, la sexualidad, la maternidad, la dependencia afectiva y las violencias abiertas o veladas que las atraviesan. Lejos de ofrecer respuestas simples, la autora se mueve entre la teoria y las vivencias, entre el analisis historico y la memoria personal, para mostrar como las formas del amor se fueron moldeando en paralelo a las transformaciones politicas y culturales. Su escritura traza un puente entre el cuerpo y la sociedad, entre lo privado y lo publico, revelando hasta que punto los sentimientos mas intimos estan atravesados por construcciones colectivas y herencias de largo aliento. Amor y violencia es, al mismo tiempo, un analisis cultural y una invitacion a mirar de frente lo que se oculta en la vida privada. Una herramienta critica para repensar nuestras relaciones mas cercanas y, con ellas, la trama de la civilizacion.

A critical, philosophical engagement of the psychological structures that propagate the continued oppression of women.In this book, the Italian feminist thinker Lea Melandri argues that systemic violence against women has deep psychoanalytic roots. Drawing inspiration from the work of Freud and the psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Elvio Fachinelli, along with feminist practices of consciousness-raising, Melandri demonstrates how male dominance and female subservience are established by society through a binary and oppositional understanding of sex and gender. This understanding-and the oppression and violence against women that results-is inscribed in the psyches of both men and women, and is replicated anew from generation to generation. Melandri analyzes women in media, politics, philosophy, and literature to show how this plays out, and calls for awareness of these deep psychic structures and expectations formed within the dynamics of society and primary family relations.
