Family Matters
A Transnational Dialogue Between Literature and Legal History

Workshop

« This workshop aims to develop a shared, interdisciplinary reflection on the concept of family, a topic that remains at the centre of intense public debate, where political arguments and cultural narratives often confront one another with conflicting outcomes.

By combining the critical representation of family emerging from feminist literary production since the 1970s with a historical and legal contextualisation of family legislation, the workshop seeks to foster a productive dialogue between different methodological approaches.

The comparative perspective will operate not only across disciplines but also across national contexts, focusing on Italy and Switzerland, and encouraging a transnational and cross-disciplinary discussion.

The workshop offers stimulating perspectives for a broad audience. It welcomes anyone interested in the topic, including students, researchers at all stages of their careers, practitioners, and members of the public who are engaged with questions of family, law, and equal opportunities. »
