Napoli: la città, le donne : il libro

Overview & Synopsis

It happens that very often a city does not reveal its past, as if they were the lines of a hand. These words, inspired to Italo Calvino, and his “Invisible Cities”, are suitable to women’s history of a city: almost completely absent in its streets' names, they re-emerge though from its monuments. The project of a podcast-video "Naples: the city, the women" (2022; 2023; 2024; 2025) in 23 clips, from which today comes a book, that collects its texts, highlight women from every era and sector, linking their names to significant places for the history itself of Naples and celebrating their precious contribution.
