Liana Borghi. Fare Mondo. Affetti, pratiche, femminismi

[Machine translation] The volume contains 16 writings and interventions by the feminist theorist and activist Liana Borghi, written or published between 1996 and 2019, with an extensive introduction to the author by the three curators. Liana Borghi's cultural and political work, in close relationship with the Anglophone landscape of contemporary feminism, queer theories and new materialism, is essential to understand how a feminist and queer paradigm, and then transfeminist, has developed in Italy as well. The volume chooses to focus on the literary-themed writings of Liana Borghi, always animated by an ethical and political tension, as well as theoretical. The curatorship involved a laborious study of the entire bibliography of Borghi, the selection and recognition of texts, some of which in different variants, or in both English and Italian versions. The essays have been annotated and amended when necessary, in order to offer an accurate tool for the study of this scholar, professor of Anglo-American literature for many years in Florence, and inserted in feminist study networks and European and international gender studies.
