Femminismi dal margine: pratiche di scrittura e pratiche politiche

The dissertation investigates the relationship between writing practices and political practices in “feminisms from the margin,” revealing how writing from subaltern positions becomes a site of epistemic production and political transformation. From Sartre’s notion of commitment to Benjamin and Adorno’s material conception of form, writing is reinterpreted as a political act embedded in social processes. Through Deleuze and Glissant, writing emerges as a practice of difference and relation. Engaging thinkers such as Lonzi, Cixous, Kristeva, Anzaldúa, bell hooks, the thesis outlines a decolonial, intersectional cartography. The margin is conceived not as exclusion but as a generative locus where language itself becomes a political gesture. Case studies on Southern Italian, migrant, and Palestinian feminisms show how writing redefines relations between body, territory, and language. Marginal writing thus generates situated knowledge and plural subjectivities, challenging universalist models and grounding an ethics of relation and shared freedom.
