Textul de pe ultima copertă

"A far-reaching and innovative work with important and suggestive revisions of previous notions of errancy and feminine behavior in Renaissance Italy. "Ladies Errant" succeeds brilliantly in weaving together texts by providing sophisticated theoretical framings that are at once subtle and powerful."--Margaret F. Rosenthal, University of Southern California

Descriere

The issue of a woman's place--and the possibility that she might stray from it--was one of early modern Italy's most persistent social concerns. Deanna Shemek presents the problem of wayward feminine behavior as it was perceived to threaten male identity and social order in the artistic and intellectual climate of the Italian Renaissance. LADIES ERRANT will interest scholars in Italian studies, women's studies, and European culture. 8 photos.
