This monograph examines the representation of women in literature, art, and other cultural expressions, highlighting how these spaces have served both to reproduce patriarchal models and to generate discourses of resistance and identity affirmation. It focuses on historical memory and the recovery of silenced female voices, emphasizing the importance of reconstructing feminist genealogies. The volume also addresses the body and subjectivity as fields of social control and, at the same time, as spaces of emancipation. It includes reflections on women’s education, creativity, and social participation, showing the tensions between imposed norms and transformative practices. It also analyzes contemporary issues related to power, inequality, and the construction of gender identities.
