Aquellos que escriben la historia han temido siempre a las mujeres rebeldes, sin miedo, poderosas, libres. Un recorrido fascinante desde la Antigüedad para entender la forma en que se construye esa idea terrible: la de una mujer poderosa.

La mujer ha sido asociada a lo largo de la historia con muchos elementos ajenos al centro de poder: representadas por la naturaleza, la magia y la sexualidad, las mujeres son un elemento peligroso desde el mismo momento en que son concebidas. Ellas seductoras, histéricas, individuos sangrantes, conspiradoras...

Para entender lo que podemos llegar a ser hay que comprender los mecanismos que han cortado una y otra vez las alas a esas mujeres del pasado: cómo se nos ha contado la historia, de dónde vienen esas imágenes que repetimos una y otra vez en cuentos, relatos, películas y novelas. Porque ni Cleopatra fue tan bruja, ni las brujas fueron tan malas, ni las malas lo eran
tanto.

Desde los mitos clásicos de figuras ominosas como Medusa o Artemis hasta las advertencias contra las sirenas o las brujas, pasando por figuras maltratadas por la historia oficial como Agripina o Mesalina, Patricia González mira a la Antigüedad para entender esa historia de las mujeres temidas y poderosas como elemento perturbador.

Un recorrido completo, ameno y riguroso, de la mano de una divulgadora tan provocadora como precisa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Those who write history have always feared rebellious, fearless, powerful, free women. A fascinating journey from ancient times to understand how this terrible idea is built: the idea of a powerful woman.

Women throughout history have been associated with many elements foreign to the heart of power: represented by nature, magic, and sexuality, women have been a dangerous element since the moment they are conceived. They are seductive, hysterical, bleeding individuals, conspirators...

To understand what we could become, we must understand the mechanisms that have clipped women's wings in the past, over and over: how history has been told, where those images we keep using in short stories, tales, movies, and novels come from. Because Cleopatra was not really a witch, and witches were not that evil, and evil women weren't really that bad.

From the classical myths of ominous figures, such as Medusa or Artemis, to warnings against sirens and witches, to figures abused by official history, such as Agrippina o Messalina, Patricia González looks back at antiquity to understand the history of feared and powerful women as a disturbing element.

A full, enjoyable, and rigorous journey by the hand of a communicator as provocative as she is accurate.

Only holds towels in place when it is full or 1/2 full
Color: 01-silver
If you are buying this for the feature of holding the paper towels in place so you can just rip one, I think you will be disappointed. Once the roll becomes smaller (and I tried changing the arm) the arm does not touch the towels. I do like the firm grip on the counter. My other dissatisfaction is the base gets water spots. Being near the sink this happens frequently. It does its job and is attractive.

Stylish
Color: 01-silver
Good sturdy stand for paper towels. Has small suction cups on bottom for stability. Good finish and good fit under the counter. Heavy base and not flimsy feeling. Brushed aluminum matched other appliances well.

Good quality, if you keep them oiled last a long time
If you keep these oiled and do not soak them, these boards last a long time. Good variety of sizes, durable (I use the larger 2 daily), and again, if you keep them oiled, easy to wipe down and haven't shown a sign of splitting. Durable as well. Would buy again.
