In Corporeal Bonds, Patrizia Sambuco analyses novels by authors such as Elsa Morante, Francesca Sanvitale, Mariateresa Di Lascia, and Elena Ferrante, each of which is narrated from the daughter's point of view and depicts the daughter's bond with the mother. Highlighting the recurrent images throughout these works, Sambuco traces these back to alternative forms of communication between mother and daughter, as well as to the female body. Sambuco also explores the attempts of the daughter-narrators to define a female self that is outside the constrictions of patriarchal society. Through these investigations, Corporeal Bonds identifies a strong connection between the ideas of post-Lacanian critical theorists, Italian feminist thinkers, and the stories within the novels."--Pub. desc 410 0$aToronto Italian studies. 606 $aMothers and daughters in literature 606 $aItalian fiction$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aItalian fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aMothers and daughters in literature. 615 0$aItalian fiction$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aItalian fiction$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a853/.91 700 $aSambuco$b Patrizia$f1965-$01545951 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779204903321 996 $aCorporeal bonds$93801198 997 $aUNINA
