This book provides an exploration of the historical conditions that gradually defined subordinating symbols and conflictual values in social relations between the sexes. It reveals how snakes and the gelid eyes of Medusa—the archetypical snake-woman—have reverberated across the visual arts and written sources throughout the ages in association with negative emotions: fear, anger, scorn and shame. The outcomes and implications of the disturbing correlation between the dangerous female gaze, the malignitas of the snake and the lethal power of menstruation that have been woven through the fabric of the Western imaginary are analysed here. This analysis reveals an intriguing history of female reptilian hybrids—from the pleasing Minoan snake goddesses to the depressing Gorgon, Echidna, Amazons, Eve, Melusine, Basilisk, Poison-Damsel, Catoblepas and Sadako/Samara—and gives the reader an opportunity to explore things that never happened but have always been.

""This book is about hair," writes Emanuele Lugli in the first sentence of this innovative cultural history of hair as seen through the lens of Lorenzo il Magnifico's Florence. Lugli reflects on the ways writers and artists naturalized religious prejudices, circumscribed social practices, and propagated gender and class subjugation through alluring works of art, in medical and political writings, and in poetry. What, he asks, may've compelled Sandro Botticelli, for example, or the young Leonardo da Vinci and dozens of their contemporaries to obsess about hair? Why take such care in depicting the braids, knots, and textures in their portraits of women specifically? Lugli dives deeply into the cultural production of notions about hair in this period of Florentine history, the way artists, poets, natural philosophers, doctors, politicians, and theologians thought about it, and how they depicted it in their art and writings. From this varied archive, Lugli gathers rewarding insights from practices and beliefs across the disciplines and genres at a crucial time when Renaissance humanists were attempting to define what it meant to live-and be-human. Lugli recuperates overlooked perceptions of hair at the very moment when hair came to be identified as a potential vector for liberating culture, and he corrects a centuries-old prejudice that sees hair as a trivial subject, as a mere female occupation kept on the margins of relevance, relegated to passing fashion or the decorative. As Lugli shows, such oversight is anachronistic, a product of modern biases, and he corrects this by elucidating hundreds of fifteenth-century sources that engage with hair as a fundamental element in the definition of genders, morals, and the laws of nature, and the exercise of power. It is a book that will surprise and delight a wide audience of scholars and anyone interested in the hidden, systemic, creative power that relied on something as unsuspected as hair to coerce people into thinking and behaving according to a code of conduct"--

Londra di inizio Novecento. Un giovane scrittore in ascesa, Paul Overt, sogna di conoscere il suo idolo letterario, Henry St. George, un astro ormai in declino ma un tempo molto famoso. L’incontro tra i due avviene grazie all’intercessione di un’attraente fanciulla, Miss Fancourt, lettrice accanita di entrambi. Paul si invaghisce subito della bella ragazza, ma esita ad avviare il suo corteggiamento e si confronta con il Maestro, vero esperto nell’ambito della seduzione. Il Maestro mette in guardia Paul dai rischi della vita coniugale e della procreazione: egli sostiene, infatti, che la colpa del proprio declino sia imputabile a queste “distrazioni” che hanno contribuito a far assopire la sua creatività artistica. Per salvaguardare la sua vocazione e la sua promettente carriera, il giovane si convince ad allontanarsi da tutte le dannose distrazioni che hanno ostacolato il suo Maestro, e parte per due anni all’estero. Al suo rientro troverà inaspettate sorprese... La lezione del maestro è uno dei romanzi brevi, sul rapporto tra arte e vita, tra i più riusciti di James. Un vero capolavoro di ambiguità, in cui si mischiano amicizia e rivalità fra colleghi e che lascia il lettore con una domanda, a cui non daremo risposta: ma in fondo a chi possiamo credere veramente?

La produzione cinematografica degli Istituti missionari italiani rappresenta un tema ancora scarsamente esplorato sia dalla storia del cinema sia dall’antropologia visuale. È innegabile, infatti, come parlare di missioni significhi parlare dell’incontro tra culture differenti e come l’occhio della macchina da presa, ponendosi al servizio dei missionari sin dal primo decennio del XX secolo, ne abbia tradotto in immagini i sentimenti verso l’Altrove. Alla luce di un dibattito piuttosto controverso rispetto alle caratteristiche e agli oggetti di studio dell’antropologia visuale, il volume intende rispondere e verificare come e perché il cinema missionario possa dirsi “etnografico” e quale contributo possa fornire all’antropologia e alla storia del cinema. Attraverso studi di casi particolarmente significativi, l’attenzione si sofferma sull’analisi degli oggetti della rappresentazione, sulle modalità di costruzione del racconto (sia nel film di finzione sia nel documentario) e sui valori veicolati attraverso le immagini in movimento.

Obiettivo del volume è quello di indagare la centralità della fotografia all’interno dei regimi scopici della modernità, oltrepassando le singole specificità mediali per mettere pienamente in luce il carattere interdisciplinare della visualità. Si è cercato di conciliare la riflessione teorica con l’approccio storico-culturale, e ci si è focalizzati in particolare sull’Italia e sulla situazione degli studi in questo paese, anche con lo scopo di compiere una riflessione sul ruolo delle culture visuali nella costituzione dell’identità nazionale, sia individuale sia collettiva.
