Rome, Nova Delphi Libri, preface Vincent d’Eaubonne, avril 2024

Not currently republished in French, this 1976 book is inserted between Feminism or Death from 1974 and Ecology/Feminism, revolution or mutation? from 1978.

Because “Capitalism is only the point of the iron that hurts us, its handle is lost in the mists of time“, Françoise relies on the history of myths and the anthropological knowledge of her time to try to locate the moment when the patriarchy took over.

After translating Feminism or Death, Sara Marchesi, collection director at Prospero Editore, decided to make this text by Françoise known in Italy.

The sexocide that Françoise d’Eaubonne talks about in this text, the treatment reserved for “witches” during the hunt that was carried out against them, was only a pretext. It was a perfect trick, suited to the era in which these events took place, to justify the torture and murder of women. Kramer and Sprenger’s Malleus Maleficarum would be treated today as the manifesto of an incel, released on the web a few hours before going to commit his mass murder in a place frequented mainly by women. (Taous Merakchi, 2023)

Milan, Prospero Editore, 432 pages.

Released November 10, 2022, with a critical introduction by Sara Marchesi.

According to shared opinion, this introduction is very good. Sara Marchesi, beyond a careful reading of Françoise, shares with her sources of reflection, those which are not the most obvious to detect at first glance in Françoise’s work, such as the philosopher Simone Weil for example.

It is not impossible that, in the future, Sara Marchesi will meet Françoise again. After reading this introduction, we hope so. (Vincent)

In this Italian version of Les femmes avant le patriarcat, a note on the first page reads: “questo libro e diretto solo alle donne” (this book is for women only).

By creating ecofeminism, Françoise’s genius was not to bring a new concept: it was to connect us with an immemorial reality, that of the pre-patriarchal cultures of our geographical area, that the rationalism of the 15th century then the humanism of the Enlightenment will have tried to eradicate it in our Western culture, now at the forefront of dehumanization.
