Anorexia is a battle; a battle to be thin; a battle of wills, denial versus desire. It is also about control; by conquering feelings of hunger, the anorectic woman aspires to conquer her emotional feelings as well. For the author, the struggle goes further. In this brilliant examination of women and eating disorders, she asserts that the complex relationship between women and food signifies women's battle for autonomy. Women's bodies are both private and public property. Society demands and expects women to look a certain way, to not take up too much space, to be self-effacing and mindful of others. Yet anorexia, whilst an extreme method of conforming to such demands, is conversely a rebellion against such ideas. It is the ultimate control over self, a cry of protest, a hunger strike against the contradictory and overwhelming demands placed on women in contemporary society.Anorexia nervosaWomenElectronic books.Anorexia nervosa.Women.616.85/2616.85262Orbach Susie1946-687624FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910461366503321Hunger strike1893409UNINA00977nam2 22002893i 450 RMR030002720231121125806.020190320d1970 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01n1:Giulio Carlo Argan3. rist. della 2. edFirenzeSansoni1970397 p.ill.24 cm001CFI00726452001 Storia dell'arte italianaGiulio Carlo ArganArgan, Giulio CarloCFIV0064120702148Argan, Dzuljo KarloCFIV200996Argan, Giulio CarloITIT-0120190320IT-FR0017 Biblioteca umanistica Giorgio ApreaFR0017 RMR0300027Biblioteca umanistica Giorgio Aprea 52DCB Arg.Sto.1 52DUP0009021725 VMB RS A 2019032020190320 5211730062UNICAS
