Накратко на български

Жените и женствеността в изкуството на Южна Италия и Илирия между VIII и III век пр.н.е. се анализират чрез визуални източници и занаятчийски изделия. Това помага за коригирането на грешните представи за античността и историята на жените.

Feminine iconography in Magna Grecia and Illyria: representing women and femininity from 8th to 3rd cent. BC

The European FEMINICON project aimed to explore female iconography in Magna Grecia and Illyria from the 8th to the 3rd century BC, putting into perspective all kinds of visual sources to identify and clarify how women were represented in Greek and indigenous crafts in southern Italy and their influence on the Illyrian coast. It aims to improve the understanding of an archaeological material that is massively decontextualized, analysed according to anachronistic misconceptions, conveying a largely distorted image of Greek antiquity and women's history. Feminicon had four main objectives: the creation of a database for iconographic studies in Magna Grecia and Illyria and the constitution of an open access documentation (hosted by Huma-num: https://magnagrecia.huma-num.fr/s/feminicon); the study of the networks of iconographic motifs, in relation to the supports and contexts; the identification of the modalities of female iconography, its clients and production workshops (these results have been discussed at several scientific events, and pubications are forthcoming and in progress); an exhibition (due to the Covid crisis, it will be carried out over the next years).

Цел на проекта

FEMINICON will explore feminine iconography in Magna Grecia from 6th to 3rd centuries BC. In a multidisciplinary approach, it will use all visual sources to identify and clarify the modalities of women’s representation in Greek and indigenous craft from South Italy, and their influence on coastal Illyria. This is important to understand gendered representations in Magna Grecia in context as these have been exported to collections all over the world and analyzed according to anachronistic preconceptions, contributing to convey a largely distorted image of Greek antiquity and women’s history. Today, thanks to new technologies, it is possible to process the huge amount of data available. This innovative project will focus on funerary representations and combines literary sources, archaeological evidence and all sorts of iconographic supports: vases, statues, paints... FEMINICON has four main objectives: 1. The creation of an indispensable database for iconographic studies in Magna Grecia and coastal Illyria with OMEKA and of an open access photographic documentation; 2. The study of iconographic patterns networks, in relation to supports and contexts; 3. The identification of the modalities of the female iconography, its customers and producers; 4. An online and physical exhibition in Taranto and Paestum museums. The interdisciplinary approach will include the history of women, funerary, gender and visual studies. New digital technologies are crucial in the project as new database models, open-data, network analysis and visualization softwares are now sufficiently developed and relevant to process the vast corpus. Digital humanities and open access philosophy are also very important for the dissemination to the scientific community and the general public. The project will contribute to European scientific excellence and competitiveness and to a better knowledge of European culture. It is of major interest for the proposer, the hosting institution and the secondments.
