Story
Elles détenaient le pouvoir, elles ont fait la grandeur du monde antique. De Cléopâtre à Théodora, les portraits de 10 femmes exceptionnelles. On croit souvent que les femmes étaient exclues du pouvoir dans le monde antique. C'est un tort. Les textes nous racontent bien autre chose pour peu qu'on se penche sur les histoires foisonnantes qui ont traversé les siècles. Loin d'être cantonnées dans la sphère privée, les femmes ont en réalité souvent détenu les plus hauts pouvoirs politiques.

Story
La carriera di Oriana Fallaci è costellata da incontri con le figure femminili del suo tempo, a partire dai primi articoli di cronaca commissionati dall'"Europeo". La giornalista incontrerà modelle, cantanti, attrici di Cinecittà e star di Hollywood, ma anche personaggi della moda come Coco Chanel o Mary Quant, diventate poi icone per generazioni a venire. Negli anni ruggenti della protesta femminista, intervisterà le protagoniste del movimento come Kate Millett, osservando da testimone attento i cambiamenti epocali che segneranno l'Italia, uno su tutti il referendum sul divorzio.

Story
Una storia francese del XIX secolo su un aspetto fondante della vita: il venire al mondo, la nascita, il nascere. Nella provincia rurale e soprattutto a Parigi si viene guidati in angoli talora ancora presenti e da riscoprire. E attraverso le vite e le opere di Marie-Anne Boivin e di Stéphane Tarnier si ricostruisce un passaggio epocale del modo di nascere: da arte secolare sviluppata nella pratica, tutta al femminile, delle levatrici ai primi apporti della nascente specialità ostetrico-ginecologica, subito rigorosamente difesa dal monopolio della scienza medica maschile.

Story
Il risorgimento fu l'aspirazione di un popolo intero - in tutte le sue diverse componenti - verso l'unità, e quell'anelito fu alimentato prevalentemente dalle giovani generazioni. Le Cinque giornate di Milano, la rivolta di Palermo, la rivitalizzazione dell'esperimento di fine Settecento della Repubblica romana e la strenua difesa della risorta Repubblica di San Marco, furono i momenti storici che cementarono definitivamente il connubio tra popolo italiano e l'idea di patria. Si trovarono a combattere fianco a fianco esponenti dei ceti professionali, artigiani, popolani, artisti.

Story
Quando si parla del Risorgimento le donne dove sono? La memoria di quelle, non poche, che lo animarono è pressoché cancellata. Eppure si trattò spesso di figure di grande notorietà, poi celebrate da statue e lapidi. Questo volume presenta al lettore alcune di queste protagoniste dimenticate: in quattordici capitoli di taglio narrativo, le autrici ricostruiscono il profilo biografico e l'azione di altrettante donne, da Georgina Saffi a Clara Maffei, da Sara Nathan ad Anita Garibaldi, dalla nobile Cristina di Belgioioso alla capraia palermitana Teresa "Testa di lana".

Story
Nel Medioevo le donne vivevano in una rigida sottomissione. Non assecondare la volontà della famiglia, non ubbidire agli uomini, padri, mariti o padroni, manifestare indipendenza di giudizio o di comportamento facevano di loro delle ribelli. Ma non sono mancate sante, regine, badesse, semplici monache, umili contadine, serve, schiave, eretiche, streghe, prostitute che hanno scelto di sottrarsi a destini segnati, resistendo, opponendosi, fuggendo. Donne decise a viaggiare, conoscere, insegnare, lavorare, combattere, predicare.

Story
Anche nel Medioevo troviamo donne disposte a vendere il proprio corpo "pro pretio, lucro et questu": condannata e ritenuta una vergogna, la prostituzione era però considerata ineliminabile e persino necessaria. Giustificabile, perché salvava da mali peggiori come la corruzione delle vergini e delle spose e "l'abominevole vizio della sodomia". Ma qual era la posizione della Chiesa e dei pubblici poteri nel regolare questo fenomeno divenuto assai rilevante? Nel Trecento, infatti, si assiste ovunque in Europa al proliferare dei postriboli, a volte quasi piccole fortezze del piacere.

Story
L'audiolibro tratteggia sedici ritratti biografici di donne che hanno partecipato, anche senza essere militanti, a quel grande passaggio d'epoca che va sotto il nome di Sessantotto. Così Franca Viola che si ribellò agli arcaici costumi siciliani e rifiutò il matrimonio riparatore, così Mara Cagol che pagò con la vita la scelta del terrorismo brigatista. Due ribellioni diverse, una pacifica e una violenta, emblematiche di quegli anni. E in mezzo ci sono le altre, Amelia Rosselli, Carla Accordi, Patty Pravo, Giovanna Marini, Perla Peragallo, Krizia, Emma Bonino, Rossana Rossanda.

The sash. The tears. The glittering crown. And of course, that soaring song. For all of its pomp and kitsch, the Miss America pageant is indelibly written into the American story of the past century. From its giddy origins as a summer’s-end tourist draw in Prohibition-era Atlantic City, it blossomed into a televised extravaganza that drew tens of millions of viewers in its heyday and was once considered the highest honor that a young woman could achieve.

Story
With their distinctive greeting at the homes across the country, sales ladies brought door-to-door sales of makeup, perfume, and other products to American women beginning in 1886. Working for the company enabled women to earn money on the side and even become financially independent in a respectable profession. Ding Dong! Avon Calling! is the story of women and entrepreneurship, and of an innovative corporation largely managed by men that empowered women to exploit networks of other women and their community for profit.

Story
Queen Victoria's reign was an era of breathtaking social change, but it did little to create a platform for women. But not so within the social sphere of the seance - a mysterious, lamp-lit world on both sides of the Atlantic, in which women who craved a public voice could hold their own. Out of the Shadows tells the stories of the enterprising women whose supposedly clairvoyant gifts granted them fame, fortune, and, most important, influence, as they crossed rigid boundaries of gender and class as easily as they passed between the realms of the living and the dead.

Cinderella stories captured the imagination of girls in the 1950s, when dreams of meeting the right man could seem like a happy ending, a solution to life's problems. But over the next 50 years women's lives were transformed, not by the magic wand of a fairy godmother, nor by marrying princes, but by education, work, birth control - and feminism.

L'audio libro "Voci dal Medioevo" è tratto dal libro di Paola Amadesi "Dieci donne e quattro uomini" (disponibile su Amazon). Figure come Eleonora d'Aquitania, madre di Riccardo I re d'Inghilterra, Eloisa, Egeria la pellegrina, Ildegarda di Bingen e Matilde di Canossa danno grande forza e voce a donne che hanno sofferto, amato, studiato, lottato contro la società del loro tempo. Sono voci che vengono da lontano ma che ci sono vicine, simili a quelle che si sentono gridare nelle strade oggigiorno.
