M?s de 500.000 ejemplares vendidos

«Ahonda en la b?squeda de un nuevo canon femenino de la literatura y el arte . --Jes?s Ruiz Mantilla, El Pa?s

Os aseguro que alguien se acordar? de nosotras en el futuro.

Con esta frase, la poeta Safo mostraba a sus compa?eras su confianza en la trascendencia de su contribuci?n a la cultura universal. Desde entonces, han pasado m?s de dos mil quinientos a?os en los que el silencio y el sometimiento al poder androc?ntrico se precipitaron sobre las mujeres creadoras. Sin embargo, hace d?cadas que en todo el mundo surgen voces que reivindican la necesidad de revisar la historia para devolver a la mujer su exacto papel en ella. Una, pionera en Espa?a, es la de ?ngeles Caso, que en 2005 puso en marcha con Las olvidadas un ambicioso proyecto de reconstrucci?n de una genealog?a cultural femenina. La historia editorial del libro demostr? la urgencia de esta labor: tras varias ediciones y medio mill?n de ejemplares vendidos, contin?a siendo hoy una obra imprescindible para entender la verdadera trascendencia de lo que el canon trat? de acallar.

Las olvidadas se centra en la recuperaci?n de las figuras de aquellas mujeres que durante la Edad Media y los Siglos de Oro ayudaron al desarrollo de las artes, la literatura, la ciencia, el pensamiento y la pol?tica para luego ser negadas, desde Hildegarda de Bingen y las monjas sabias hasta Cristina de Pisan, Beatriz Galindo, las pintoras Sofonisba Anguissola y Artemisia Gentileschi, la esp?a y dramaturga Aphra Behn, santa Teresa de Jes?s o la escritora Mar?a de Zayas. Ellas son tan solo una peque?a parte de ese enjambre de infinitas mujeres que contribuyeron a sentar las bases del mundo en el que ahora vivimos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A pioneering work in redeeming women's place in history

More than 500,000 copies sold

"Deepens the search for a new feminine literary and artistic canon."- Jes?s Ruiz Mantilla, El Pa?s

Someone, I tell you, in another time will remember us.

With this assurance, the poet Sappho proclaimed the transcendence of women's contribution to universal culture. Since then, more than 2,500 years of silence and male-centered power have weighed on female creators. For decades, however, a variety of voices have called for rewriting history to restore women's role in its pages. A pioneer of such efforts in Spain is ?ngeles Caso, whose The Forgotten launched an ambitious project in 2005 to create a women's cultural genealogy. The book's publication history demonstrates the urgency of this task: Several editions later, with half a million copies sold, it continues to be a key source for understanding the importance of works obscured by the established canon.

The Forgotten redeems the legacy of women who contributed to the development of art, literature, science, thought and politics in the medieval and early modern periods but whose contributions were later denied: Hildegarde of Bingen and other erudite nuns, Cristine de Pizan, Beatriz Galindo, painters Sofonisba Anguissola and Artemisia Gentileschi, playwright and spy Aphra Behn, Saint Teresa of ?vila, writer Mar?a de Zayas.... These are just a few of the countless women who helped lay the foundation for the world we live in today.
