A Thousand New Beginnings and the Secret of Life

In her relationship and conversations with her students, Chiara Zamboni has developed the intuition, confirmed by the young people, that they “want to be recognised but not known”, which means a desire to be here, to express their own unique and unrepeatable singularity, and to explore what it means to be a woman in an autonomous way, outside of what has already been said, already codified. The author sees, in young women, a desire for singular resonance that older women should take on board and keep alive – given that this is the same desire that brings them together- whilst sustaining the enigma that each one is to themselves and to others, protecting the mystery without consuming it or erasing it.
