Forme della soggettività femminile in tre poemi persiani medievali: Shah-namé di Ferdowsi, Vis o Ramin di Gorgani e Homay o Homayun di Khwaju di Kerman

This is a research on the forms of female subjectivity in three major works of the Persian medieval poetry: Shah-name by Ferdowsi, Vis o Ramin by Gorgani and Homay o Homayun by Khwaju of Kerman. Each work is analyzed separately in the first three chapters, with special regard to the female characters; in chapter 4 there is an excursus on misogyny in the Persian medieval literature and in chapter 5 there is a large comparative analysis of the three authors on the theme of female subjectivity. A final chapter is devoted to the theme of the revaluation of woman in the Persian romance.
