4.0 out of 5 stars Good Sourcebook, April 22, 2008
This review is from: The Feminist Encyclopedia of Italian Literature (Hardcover)
For a forum on Italian homecooking, I spent some time looking at sources that had a distinctly female point of view. While I found this book to be not terribly useful for my panel, I thought it was one of the best and most accessible sources. The encyclopedic format forces some choices on the compiler and I was surprised to see Natalia Ginzburg deprived of her own entry.
None the less, there are excellent summaries of the feminist critique of literature from the largely non-academic Italian feminist community. I lingered over this volume and browsed it with relish when my 'real' research was done.
