The essay offers some theoretical-critical reflections on Anna Banti’s Science Fiction, mainly considered secondary in the overall critical evaluation of the author. In the wake of more general perspectives offered by Gender Studies - however not overwhelming in the economy of textual analysis - a point of contact between Bantian feminism and Science Fiction will be traced in the first part of the essay. The discussion will then focus on the analysis of the short story Le donne muoiono, highlighting the message of social criticism, relevant for both male and female readers.

Abstract
The essay offers some theoretical-critical reflections on Anna Banti’s Science Fiction, mainly considered secondary in the overall critical evaluation of the author. In the wake of more general perspectives offered by Gender Studies - however not overwhelming in the economy of textual analysis - a point of contact between Bantian feminism and Science Fiction will be traced in the first part of the essay. The discussion will then focus on the analysis of the short story Le donne muoiono, highlighting the message of social criticism, relevant for both male and female readers.File in questo prodotto:
