Cavicchi, Camilla. Maistre Jan
Cavicchi, Camilla. Maistre Jan: La carriera di un cantore francese alla corte degli Este di Ferrara (1512–1538). An article from journal Renaissance and Reformation / Renaissance et Réforme (Volume 48, Number 4, Fall 2025, pp. 7-278), on Érudit
Roman Stories
There are so many angles one could utilize to analyze Jhumpa Lahiri's most recent story collection: from the practice of self-translation to the relative paucity of such collections in Italian (this volume was originally published in Italian in 2022), just to mention two. But this is a review, not an essay. I therefore concentrate on its content and style, and I will close by suggesting how its significance concerns both “Italian” and “American.”…
Colonna, Pompeo. In Defense of Women
This deceptively slim volume is a tour de force of insights, analysis, and synthesis, an example of the plentiful fruits borne out of historical and philological abilities, and a welcome starting point for anybody interested in one specific aspect of the early modern "other voice" tradition: the so-called querelle des femmes.How are these divergent traits able to coexist?Thanks to Margaret L. King's seemingly inexhaustible desire to uncover what …
Migiel, Marilyn. Veronica Franco in Dialogue
Goethals, Jessica. Margherita Costa, Diva of the Baroque Court
Efforts to recover and interpret the past are never-ending, ever-changing, and always meaningful.The volume here under review offers us an excellent example of the multi-faceted and difficult work that scholars carry out when their object of study is complex and the activities in which she (in this instance) engaged were both textual and performance-based, that is, in the latter case impermanent.Jessica Goethals offers her readers the "first full…

Amore innamorato et impazzato
Tra i numerosi testi dati alle stampe da Lucrezia Marinella (1571–1653), Amore innamorato et impazzato è un unicum che pone profondi problemi interpretativi. “Poema” in ottave, come recita la copertina, narra le vicende di Cupido impazzito per amore, “con gli Argomenti & Allegorie a ciascun canto” (46). Si annuncia, quindi, come una sorta di trait d'union tra la sua produzione religiosa e quella secolare. Se l'argomento deriva dalla mitologia gre…
Women’s Patronage and Gendered Cultural Networks in Early Modern Europe
Transnational Italian Studies
For a few years now, I have been observing a “transnational turn” within my scholarly field of Early Modern/Renaissance Studies. I cannot hide that I greeted this trend with some skepticism: given that Italy was not a unified country (a nation) until 1861, how could one deploy a transnational approach to the peninsula in the sixteenth century? Even for English, Spanish, or French topics and authors, could one say that their geographical areas wer…

The Dramaturgy of the Spectator
Tatiana Korneeva gives us a well argued, impressively researched, and theoretically complex volume, one that fills a large void in the study of Italian theater in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This achievement is all the more impressive given Korneeva's ambitious goal: “This book claims . . . that seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Italian treater not only coincided with and mirrored the transition from the representative to the mode…
Staging the Soul
This cogently argued, tersely written volume fills a notable gap in the scholarship of early modern Italian culture: by connecting texts written to be performed and to present positive behaviors with the Jesuit visualizing tradition, deployed in prayers and spiritual exercises, Eugenio Refini offers a novel and insightful way to connect seemingly disparate genres that, instead, illuminate each other. He does so by bringing to bear the theoretical…
Talking to the Girls. Intimate and Political Essays on the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire
George Santayana famously said that “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” The issue with this statement is that it is predicated on the fact that everybody shares one past. The collection under review reminds us that the past is not only communal but individual, as its strong subtitle suggests: “intimate” meaning “innermost,” affecting the very core of a person's being. What emerges from these pieces is that the composi…

Andrea Moudarres, The Enemy in Italian Renaissance Epic
Il governo della menzogna. Antonfrancesco Grazzini e l'allegoria del potere
A Theatre of Diplomacy. International Relations and the Performing Arts in Early Modern France
In this broad-ranging, clearly argued and deeply research monograph, Ellen R. Welch demonstrates that ‘taking metaphors seriously’ matters. When early modern diplomats described their actions and settings using the language of theatre, they were approximating their court experience using a frame of reference that would have been understandable to their addressees. At the same time, the fact that this rhetorical approach was widespread indicates t…

The Woman Narrator’s Voice
This essay explores the rhetorical strategies and the functions bestowed on specific characters that Lucrezia Marinella utilizes in her 1635 epic poem Enrico and proposes that the narrative voice is choral and gendered in subtle but important ways. It concentrates on rhetorical questions and indirect references to the narrator in the course of the plot as well as to one female character who becomes a spokesperson for the narrator. By building on …

A Regent and Her Court
This essay outlines a longer research into cultural production during the Florentine regency of Maria Maddalena d'Austria and Cristina of Lorraine (1621–1628). It challenges widely held beliefs on patronage and on the climate prevailing at court in this period. Specifically it analyzes a stage fragment and two short poems by Ottavio Rinuccini in order to provide an indicative case study of the project at large

Picturing Performance
Thomas F. Heck has assembled an impressive collection of informative essays which aim "to raise consciousness within the profession . . . of the opportunities that lie at hand to seek, to find, and to use in appropriate ways the pictorial materials that relate to the performing art we call theatre" as well as to music and dance (138; emphasis added). This collection is both long overdue and extremely timely. As many examples clarify beyond doubt,…
