description

This article introduces a reflection on personal journeys, of dialogues and readings, with Lidia Curti. What is feminine writing? And, what lies behind the screen of representation? These aim at highlighting their political and positional nature within a way of thinking inspired by geographical studies and the feminist thought. So, an attempt to create the bonds for a reflection on the meaning of writing and translation, and on the sense of identity and alterity is made through the voices of authors like Morrison, Devi, and Spivak. It is in the border writing of postcolonial authors that we find a ‘space of in-between’ that allows what has been removed – a testimony of the Mediterranean matter – to emerge.
