Since then, more than 2,500 years of silence and male-centered power have weighed on female creators. For decades, however, a variety of voices have called for rewriting history to restore women's role in its pages. A pioneer of such efforts in Spain is Ángeles Caso, whose \u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten\u003c\/i\u003e launched an ambitious project in 2005 to create a women's cultural genealogy. The book's publication history demonstrates the urgency of this task: Several editions later, with half a million copies sold, it continues to be a key source for understanding the importance of works obscured by the established canon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten\u003c\/i\u003e redeems the legacy of women who contributed to the development of art, literature, science, thought and politics in the medieval and early modern periods but whose contributions were later denied: Hildegarde of Bingen and other erudite nuns, Cristine de Pizan, Beatriz Galindo, painters Sofonisba Anguissola and Artemisia Gentileschi, playwright and spy Aphra Behn, Saint Teresa of Ávila, writer María de Zayas.... These are just a few of the countless women who helped lay the foundation for the world we live in today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16679101\"\u003eÁngeles Caso\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lumen Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.80w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788426426888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8426426883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e Spanish\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO022000\"\u003eWomen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SOC\"\u003eSocial Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SOC010000\"\u003eFeminism \u0026amp; Feminist Theory\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eÁngeles Caso\u003c\/b\u003e (Gijón, 1959) is a writer, art historian and communicator.
