[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","The Tigress in the Snow explores how literature reacted to, influenced, and shaped the evolving notion of motherhood in twentieth-century Italy. From the late-nineteenth century rhetorical celebration of the mother as Madonna, to the Fascist regime&apos;s demographic campaign and feminist revisions of the maternal role, Laura Benedetti shows how the mother&apos;s social status was a site of constant negotiation in Italy during the last century and how this negotiation came to be represented in literature.
