Family, honor and gender in Sicily: models and new research
Abstract
This article shows how the latest research into Sicily’s social and economic history calls into question certain well-established interpretations of the history of the family and its structures, the paradigm of Mediterranean honour, and the theory of familism. This new appraisal also highlights the major significance of the history of women and gender identity.
Key words: Italy-Sicily, family history, familism, honour, Mediterranean.Downloads
