EXTRAORDINARY WOMEN 4ºESO BAR
AA,VV
These are the stories of four under-valued women who achieved extraordinary things. Colette wrote a series of successful novels, but her husband published them under his own name. Beautiful film star Hedy Lamarr invented a secret communication system, later adopted by the US Navy. But originally, her invention had been rejected and she was told to stick to entertaining. Ángela Ruiz Robles invented a mechanical precursor to the digital tablet 100 years ahead of her time but wasnt taken seriously. Seventeenth-century artist Artemisia Gentileschi fought the prejudice of the male-controlled art world to achieve greatness.
