In all fields, the history of women in culture and civil life is a history of marginalization and even today, in Italy and around the world, gender equality, strongly conditioned by stereotypes, struggles to make headway. Since primary school, girls and boys are told that there are things for boys and things for girls and, among things for boys, there is science and scientists. In this journey we will talk about women who, despite achieving top-level results in the scientific field, are ignored and have been ignored by the cultural history of humanity.
The phenomenon of failure to recognize the achievements of women in science, of belittling their successes and, at the same time, assigning them to male colleagues, comes under the expression “Matilda effect”, coined by the science historian Margaret W. Rossiter in 1993 who, studying biographies and historical facts, realized that there were dozens and dozens of stories of female scientists who, starting from antiquity, had been systematically excluded from the history of science.And it is this “invisibility” that has given rise to the still deeply rooted idea that science is something for men.
To give visibility to some of these scientists we decided to dedicate each day of the festival to one of them.
