Art historians focus on the texts written in the 1960s, when Lonzi was still actively working as a critic, whereas feminist scholars engage with her more openly political interventions, published after her declared embrace of a separatist feminism. In 1970 Lonzi decided to leave the art world for good and dedicate herself to her newly founded feminist collective, Rivolta Femminile. While recognizing the break in Lonzi's life and work, this anthology maps the overall arc of her intellectual and political production, giving equal weight to her seminal contributions to art criticism and her trailblazing feminist writings. A comprehensive collection of texts from the most influential and iconic figure of Italian second-wave feminism, \u003ci\u003eFeminism in Revolt\u003c\/i\u003e seeks to shed light on Lonzi's versatile approach to literary genres and compositions by juxtaposing essayistic texts, poems, diary excerpts, and manifestos.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarla Lonzi\u003c\/b\u003e was an Italian art critic and feminist activist.
