Description

La imagen de la Antigüedad clásica que la mayoría aprendimos en la escuela pasa por alto la misoginia a la vez que omite la semilla de la resistencia feminista. Muchas de las prácticas nocivas de nuestros días, como los códigos de la vestimenta escolar, la explotación del medio ambiente o la cultura de la violación, tienen sus raíces en el mundo antiguo. Pero en El resurgir de Antígona la clasicista Helen Morales nos recuerda que los mitos tienen un poder subversivo, porque se cuentan -y pueden leerse- de modos muy variados. A través de estas historias, ya sea la valiente actitud de Antígona contra la tiranía o la del indestructible Céneo, que inspira a las personas transgénero y no binarias de hoy, Morales desvela verdades ocultas sobre la solidaridad, el empoderamiento y la catarsis. El resurgir de Antígona nos ofrece una nueva manera de entender las historias que damos por sabidas y nos muestra cómo podemos recuperarlas para desafiar el statu quo y criticar los regímenes injustos.





The image of classical antiquity that most of us learned in school overlooks misogyny while omitting the seed of feminist resistance. Many of the harmful practices of our day, such as school dress codes, exploitation of the environment or the culture of rape, have their roots in the ancient world. But in El resurgir de Antígona the classicist Helen Morales reminds us that myths have a subversive power, because they are told - and can be read - in very different ways. Through these stories, whether it is Antígona's courageous attitude against tyranny or that of the indestructible Céneo, who inspires transgender and non-binary people today, Morales uncovers hidden truths about solidarity, empowerment and catharsis. The Rise of Antigone offers us a new way of understanding the stories we take for granted and shows us how we can retrieve them to challenge the status quo and criticize unjust regimes.
