Book Synopsis Women and Gender in Post-unification Italy by : Katharine Mitchell
Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century a woman's place was considered to be in the home. During the Risorgimento and the years following the Unification of Italy in 1861, economic, political and social changes enabled women to engage in pursuits that had previously been the exclusive domain of men. This book traces this shift in cultural perception.
