Abstract

The present article deals with the forllowing issues: are the processes of transnational mobility and transcultural relations somehow specific to the experience of early women filmmakers? Is there any particular reason why feminist film history should pay special attention to those aspects and be actively involved in the process of a transnational reconfiguration of film studies? Part of a dossier edited by Christine Gledhill and entirely devoted to "Transnationalizing Women's Film History," the article attemps to answer the question by presenting a few case studies drawn from the author's reasearch in Italian and international silent film history. The dossier includes articles by (among others) Jane Gaines (Columbia University), MarK Garrett Cooper (University of South Carolina), Rosalla Maule (Concordia University, Montréal), Shelley Stamp (University of California, Santa Cruz)
