Beschreibung:
Despite the status of Gaspara Stampa (1523?-1554) as one of the greatest and most creative poets and musicians of the Italian Renaissance, scholarship on Stampa has been surprisingly scarce and unsystematic. In this volume, scholars from various disciplines employ contrasting methodologies to explore different aspects of Stampa's work. The volume presents a rich introduction to, and interdisciplinary investigation of, Stampa's impact on Renaissance culture.
