Produktbeschreibung
Time is always a good way to shed light on reality. The historicity of things, people and institutions imprints itself on our thoughts and behaviors, so we are able to understand the foundations of the world we live in by looking at it from a temporal perspective. In this short book we look for the meanings of the ways of thinking that have informed Western culture in the construction and sharing of images, representations and judgments about women. We follow paths that take us from classical antiquity to the 1970s and 1980s.
