A myth is not an object, but rather a process, one that Chiara Bottici practises by exploring different variants of the myth of “womanhood” through first- and third-person prose and poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe follow a series of myths that morph into each other, disclosing ways of being woman that question inherited patriarchal orders. In this metamorphic world, story-telling is not just a mix of narrative, philosophical dialogues and metaphysical theorizing: it is a current that traverses all of them by overflowing the boundaries it encounters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn doing so, \u003cem\u003eA Feminist Mythology\u003c\/em\u003e proposes an alternative writing style that recovers ancient philosophical and literary traditions from the pre-Socratic philosophers and Ovid’s \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e to the philosophical novellas and feminist experimental writings of the last century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47595500110060,"sku":"9781350095977","price":51.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781350095977-a-feminist-mythology.jpg?v=1777898343","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/a-feminist-mythology-by-chiara-bottici-9781350095977","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
