Abstract:

The article discusses the genesis, creation and activities of probably the most active Italian women’s organization in the 20th century. Societá Pro Cultura Femminile operated for almost a hundred years in many areas of social activity, enabling hundreds of its members to become acquainted with European cultural heritage and providing an important impetus for Italian women’s fight for their rights. Much space was also devoted to the outstanding activist of the association and its long-time president, Lea Mei, thanks to whom the association developed harmonious and undisturbed, despite sometimes unfavorable political and social conditions.
