Otherness is a concept that can be linked to that of identity, when it refers to the relationship with the Other who is “different”: man vs. woman, teenagers vs. adults, autochthonous vs. foreigners and so forth. The Other as a stranger confronts us with the unknown and with “who we are” (Carli & Paniccia, 2004; Salvatore et al., 2018). The present paper investigates the image of the foreigner and the representation of women as a pretext for analyzing dynamics of confrontation with Otherness, two identities that meet in a shared place, i.e. the relationship, here understood as a third dimension.

Abstract
Otherness is a concept that can be linked to that of identity, when it refers to the relationship with the Other who is “different”: man vs. woman, teenagers vs. adults, autochthonous vs. foreigners and so forth. The Other as a stranger confronts us with the unknown and with “who we are” (Carli & Paniccia, 2004; Salvatore et al., 2018). The present paper investigates the image of the foreigner and the representation of women as a pretext for analyzing dynamics of confrontation with Otherness, two identities that meet in a shared place, i.e. the relationship, here understood as a third dimension.File in questo prodotto:
