Sobre IBD

The purpose of the book is to address issues of women and knowledge that are not readily available in mainstream Western literature on the Mediterranean region. In this respect, the book underlines the wealth of ways which women use to widen the concept of knowledge and open new venues of research. As such, the Mediterranean women have helped constitute new meanings of knowledge whilst simultaneously providing a wealth of material that is now part of the knowledge archive of the Mediterranean.
