This course presents original feminist texts of the first and second wave of the women's movement in a historiographical perspective. It aims at familiarising the students with traditions of modern feminist thought and at pointing out issues that are central to feminist theory. The course explores the scientific relevance of feminist texts in terms of their critique of culture, politics, and knowledge, and aims at introducing students to the efforts made by feminist scholars to systematise these texts in a critical tradition of its own. Notions such as canon-formation and historiography will be introduced by making reference to second-wave feminism. Special emphasis is placed on the idea of which criteria of selection are adopted in order to define certain texts as "feminist classics" and to assess their relevance, especially for the so-called "third feminist wave."
