Flori, a Pastoral Drama: A Bilingual Edition by Maddalena Campiglia (English) Pa

Description: Flori, a Pastoral Drama by Maddalena Campiglia, Virginia Cox, Lisa Sampson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description One of the first pastoral dramas published by an Italian woman, Flori has been comparatively neglected by scholars. The editors argue that Flori contains an intensity of focus on the ideals of female autonomy that makes it a rewarding study both as literature and as a historical document. Publisher Description One of the first pastoral dramas published by an Italian woman, Flori is Maddalena Campiglias most substantial surviving literary work and one of the earliest known examples of secular dramatic writing by a woman in Europe.Although acclaimed in her day, Campiglia (1553-95) has not benefited from the recent wave of scholarship that has done much to enhance the visibility and reputation of contemporaries such as Isabella Andreini, Moderata Fonte, and Veronica Franco. As this bilingual, first-ever critical edition of Flori illustrates, this neglect is decidedly unwarranted. Flori is a work of great literary and cultural interest, noteworthy in particular for the intensity of its focus on the experiences and perceptions of its female protagonists and their ideals of female autonomy. Flori will be read by those involved in the study of early modern literature and drama, womens studies, and the study of gender and sexuality in this period.
