Resultado de "Silvia Federici" em Todas as categorias

Por que voltar a falar, hoje, sobre caça às bruxas? Em Mulheres e caça às bruxas, Silvia Federici revisita os principais temas de um trabalho anterior, Calibã e a bruxa, e nos brinda com um livro que apresenta as raízes históricas dessas perseguições, que tiveram como alvo principalmente as mulheres.

We are witnessing a new surge of interpersonal and institutional violence against women, including new witch hunts. This surge of violence has occurred alongside an expansion of capitalist social relations. In this new work that revisits some of the main themes of Caliban and the Witch, Silvia Federici examines the root causes of these developments and outlines the consequences for the women affected and their communities.

Caliban and the Witch is a history of the body in the transition to capitalism. Moving from the peasant revolts of the late Middle Ages to the witch hunts and the rise of mechanical philosophy, Federici investigates the capitalist rationalization of social reproduction.

Narrar a história das palavras que são frequentemente usadas para definir e degradar as mulheres é um passo necessário para compreender como a opressão de gênero funciona e se reproduz. A história do termo "gossip" [atualmente traduzido como "fofoca"] é emblemática nesse contexto.

Extensively researched and told through alternating fiction and nonfiction chapters, this book illuminates a shocking truth: contrary to popular opinion, the witch hunts never ended. Alice shares research that suggests tens of thousands of witch hunt-related deaths have happened all over the world in the last thirty years. The Once & Future Witch Hunt also features tantalizing glimpses into Alice's ancestors' lives and reimagines the trials through fact-based fiction.
