Televisione, femminile, femminismo, media history, donne come produttriciRésumé
Gli anni duemila hanno visto emergere sulla scena internazionale dei gender/feminist media studies un corpus crescente di letteratura accademica che, contrapponendosi alla invisibilità in cui la convenzionale storiografia dei media relega la presenza femminile, si impegna a riconoscere e valorizzare il lavoro e il ruolo cruciale delle donne nella storia degli stessi media. Alla intersezione tra approccio biografico, storiografico e media industry studies, questa letteratura si discosta dal mainstream degli stessi studi di genere e media nel focalizzare la ricerca e l'analisi non tanto o non soltanto sulla esclusione e la marginalizzazione delle donne all'interno degli apparati di produzione quanto sulla presenza nei media, fin dalle origini, di figure femminili che sullo schermo o dietro lo schermo, above o below the line, individualmente o collettivamente, hanno contribuito in modo sostanziale a fare una storia da cui sono state cancellate. Il presente articolo ricostruisce questo percorso.
