Abstract
El siglo XVIII será un período crucial en la lucha de las mujeres por la
reivindicación de sus derechos. El espíritu revolucionario de la Ilustración había penetrado también en ellas, que anhelaban ansiosas la llegada de un giro
definitivo que culminase en una transformación radical de la sociedad, donde,
finalmente, hubiera cabida para ambos sexos en igualdad de condiciones. Sin
embargo, la tan aclamada proclamación de la Declaración de los derechos del
hombre y del ciudadano, aprobada en París, en 1789, ante todo pronóstico, las
excluirá de la esfera de los derechos humanos. Muchas fueron las reacciones
en toda Europa contra tamaña injusticia, entre ellas la publicación, en Italia, en
1794, del tratado Breve difesa dei diritti delle Donne, del que daremos cuenta
en el presente artículo
The 18th century will be a crucial period in the women’s fight for the vindication of their rights. The revolutionary spirit of the Enlightenment had also penetrated them, who anxiously longed for the arrival of a definitive turn that would culminate in a radical transformation of society, where, finally, there would be room for both sexes on equal terms. However, the acclaimed proclamation of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, approved in Paris in 1789, above all expectations, will exclude them from the sphere of human rights. There were many reactions in Europe against such injustice, among them the publication, in Italy, in 1794, of the treatise Breve difesa dei diritti delle Donne, which we will give an account of in this article
