However, the burgeoning development of the feminist movement during this period exerted a profound influence on Italian film culture. Moreover, how did this film culture shape the lives of women? This book delves into the intricate interplay between feminism and Italian cinema, focusing on the everyday experiences of women in their engagement with the medium. By employing a feminist lens informed by Gramscian cultural theory, the book constructs an archival counter-history of Italian cinema, highlighting the active participation of women as moviegoers, activists, and practitioners. Through a collective-historical agency, this book challenges the patriarchal structures and strategies of invisibility in cinema, shedding light on their profound impact on women's lives and contributions to the evolving landscape of Italian film culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 466g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 166 x 243 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781474463249\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dalila Missero","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44096241238266,"sku":"9781474463249","price":79.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646238976555_book.jpg?v=1646931365","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/women-feminism-and-italian-cinema-archives-from-a-film-culture-9781474463249","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
