Widow City: Gender, Emotion, and Community in the Italian Renaissance - The Early Modern Exchange
Anna Wainwright
Widow City investigates the ever-evolving role of the widow in medieval and early modern Italian literature, from canonical authors such as Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio, to the numerous widowed writers who rose to prominence in the sixteenth century—including Vittoria Colonna, Veronica Gambara, and Francesca Turina—and radically changed the conversation on public mourning.
