The article examines the condition of women in the context of russian-ukrainian conflict. The war upsets the harmonious life development, now reduced to a mere survival and forced into violence. The daily reports show a general decline of the human culture, that is caused by the dissolution of all pluralism forms and by the production of deformative existence features. It is about the effects of a reality marked by destruction and death. Fear and anxiety, suffering and distress define the condition of women involved into the war. So, it is necessary to think about categories such as beauty, nature, love and freedom – elements so peculiar of femininity –, in order to oppose the inhuman logic of war and move towards a possible culture of life.
L’articolo prende in esame la condizione delle donne nel contesto del conflitto russo-ucraino. Il perdurare degli scontri sconvolge il costituirsi armonico della vita, ora ridotta a mera sopravvivenza e costretta nelle maglie della violenza. La cronaca quotidiana descrive un generale declino della cultura dell’umano, provocato dal disfacimento di ogni forma di pluralismo e dal prodursi di tratti deformativi dell’esistenza. Sono gli effetti di un mondo segnato dalla distruzione e dalla morte. Paura e ansia, sofferenza e angoscia accompagnano le donne coinvolte nel dramma della guerra. Ciò sospinge a ripensare categorie quali bellezza, natura, amore e libertà – elementi così peculiari della femminilità –, al fine di contrastare le logiche disumane della guerra e muovere verso una possibile cultura della vita.

Abstract
The article examines the condition of women in the context of russian-ukrainian conflict. The war upsets the harmonious life development, now reduced to a mere survival and forced into violence. The daily reports show a general decline of the human culture, that is caused by the dissolution of all pluralism forms and by the production of deformative existence features. It is about the effects of a reality marked by destruction and death. Fear and anxiety, suffering and distress define the condition of women involved into the war. So, it is necessary to think about categories such as beauty, nature, love and freedom – elements so peculiar of femininity –, in order to oppose the inhuman logic of war and move towards a possible culture of life.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
