Description

Rebecca Solnit blev et ikon, da hun med sit skarpe og veloplagte essay Mænd forklarer mig ting satte ord på den lidt nedladende måde, nogle mænd forklarer kvinder noget, de allerede ved. Solnits beskrivelse gik sin sejrsgang over hele verden, og begrebet mansplaining var født. Titelessayet er humoristisk, men slår også en alvorligere tone an, for mansplaining kradser kun i overfladen af dybere kvindefjendske strukturer. Solnit kaster her lys over, hvordan den systematiske vold og undertrykkelse af kvinder viser sig i forskellige former for magtudøvelse, om det så drejer sig om gruppevoldtægter, seksuelle krænkelser eller en toppolitikers overgreb på en stuepige i New York. Rebecca Solnit (f. 1961) er prisvindende amerikansk historiker, aktivist og forfatter til 18 bøger om bl.a. landskab, miljø, kunst og politik. Hun er en af USA’s fremmeste og mest læste essayister.
