La historia de la mujer en 100 objetos

The heritage of women is so rich, so diverse and even today so unknown that it goes beyond the conventional way of telling it. Just as women have found holes to survive or prevail, to write or paint, to achieve education or power, so that pain would decrease or work become lighter, it is necessary that the history that studies them resort to perspectives. and to new formats. That is the spirit that animates this book: to approach women's history from a different perspective, guided by 100 objects that had women as protagonists, recipients or inventors. From the lipstick, the Barbie, the clay vase, the mantilla or the smallpox vaccine. Espido Freire shows us the cunning of our ancestors to respond to their needs in a society that considered them a lower priority, and rescues a universe condemned to silence by traditional historians.
