Diversamente scienza
L’opera nasce dal convegno organizzato dal Comitato Unico di Garanzia dell’Università di Firenze e dalla Conferenza Nazionale degli Organismi di Parità delle Università italiane il 12 ottobre 2018. I contributi raccolti nel volume illustrano gli ostacoli che le donne incontrano nella carriera accademica, e, più in particolare, nell’ambito delle STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Le questioni affrontate nel volume assumono particolare rilievo se si considera che le donne rappresentano a livello mondiale meno del 30% del personale di ricerca nel mondo e che soltanto il 30% delle studentesse sceglie gli ambiti STEM per la propria formazione universitaria.
A Companion to Catherine of Siena
This study offers a substantial introduction to the world of Catherine of Siena (1347-80), her works and the way her followers responded to her religious leadership and legacy. Although much scholarship has dealt with her visionary reputation, this volume, written by experts in Catherinian studies, highlights her image as a church reformer, peacemaker, preacher, author, holy woman, stigmatic, saint and politically astute person. Furthermore, it assesses the manuscript tradition of works by and about Catherine of Siena. Few overviews of the historical and cultural circumstances of Catherine of Siena exist in English. A Companion to Catherine of Siena, therefore, makes accessible hitherto elusive details of this Sienese saint’s life and works. Contributors include: Allison Clark Thurber, Beverly Mayne Kienzle, Blake Beattie, Carolyn Muessig, Diega Giunta, Eliana Corbari, F. Thomas Luongo, George Ferzoco, Heather Webb, Jane Tylus, Maiju Lehmijoki-Gardner, Silvia Nocentini, and Suzanne Noffke. .

The scope of the collection is international, both in terms of the philosophers represented and the contributors themselves from Britain and ...
The Saintly Politics of Catherine of Siena
Saint Catherine of Siena (1347–1380) has become a defining figure in the history of medieval religion and one of the main exemplars of the "feminine turn" in late medieval religious culture. Despite a hagiographical tradition and historiography that has placed Catherine at a mystic remove from the politics of her day, Catherine's public authority was shaped by politics, both locally in Siena and broadly within late-fourteenth-century contests between the papacy and the Republic of Florence for hegemony in central Italy. In The Saintly Politics of Catherine of Siena, F. Thomas Luongo combines literary-critical readings of Catherine's letters—she was the author of one of the largest collec...
