About twenty years after their first publication, I welcome with pleasure and gratitude the reissue of Le alfabetiche cromie di Kate Chopin and Un paio di calze di seta. This American writer is still not as well known as she deserves to be, at least here in Italy. Beyond a few new translations of The Awakening and some short stories, there is still a lack—or at least an insufficiency—of a rich body of monographic work on her entire oeuvre.

My essay had, and still has, the intention of offering tools for deeper exploration and connections both for those who study her and for those who encounter Kate Chopin for the first time. Having both the journey and the guide available in a single volume seems to me a valuable opportunity.

Description

To highlight works and personalities of the highest quality, with powerful originality and eccentric, subversive strength—free from canons and rhetoric—is, I firmly believe, a civil, political, and artistic duty.

Over the course of my studies, my attention has focused predominantly on women artists who, across the centuries, in different yet all-encompassing ways, have suffered injustices of marginalization, underestimation, devaluation, even erasure. It is never a coincidence when an act of intellectual femicide occurs […]

Kate Chopin carved her pen into the diseased crusts of social and relational daily life, especially into the decay of community—into those roots that deny women their rights and opportunities.
