Overview
El libro más personal de Julia Navarro
Una sugerente invitación a compartir las historias escritas y vividas por mujeres: con ellos, sin ellos, por ellos, frente a ellos.
Hasta el siglo XX la Historia la escribieron los hombres. Eso explica por qué las mujeres apenas aparecemos como sujetos de las historias de la Historia. Sin embargo, la lista de aquellas que la protagonizaron es extensa: desde diosas hasta reinas, desde cortesanas hasta científicas, desde actrices hasta santas, desde escritoras hasta políticas... Hemos estado en todas partes, aunque un manto de silencio se empeñara en cubrirnos o ignorarnos.
Eso sí, no podemos contar las historias de estas mujeres sin tenerlos también en cuenta a ellos, porque desde el principio de los tiempos las vidas de hombres y mujeres han estado entrelazadas y no se explican las unas sin los otros, es decir con ellos, sin ellos, por ellos, frente a ellos o con la ignorancia de ellos. Por eso, este libro no es solo la historia de ellas sino la de todos, pero contada no a través de la supremacía masculina sino desde un lugar común.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Julia Navarro’s most personal book.
A suggestive invitation to share stories written and lived by women—with men, without men, for men, in front of men.
Up to the twentieth century, History was written by men. This explains why women barely appear as subjects in the recount of History. However, the list of women who had leading roles in it is quite lengthy—from goddesses to queens, from courtesans to scientists, from actors to saints, from writers to politicians... We have been everywhere, even if a shroud of silence was bent on obscuring and ignoring us.
Albeit we cannot tell these women’s stories without taking men into account, given that since the dawn of time, the lives of men and women have been interwoven, and it is impossible to explain one without the other, namely with them, without them, for them, in front of them, or being ignored by them. Therefore, this book is not only the history of women, but of all, not told through male supremacy, but from common ground.
