Deanna Shemek's astute and engrossing study of Lodovico Domenichi's Rime diverse d'alcune nobilissime et virtuossime donne (1559), an anthology of fifty-three Italian women writers, argues that although the "book proposed women's poetry as a literary and bibliographical category, a gender turned genre" (242), it failed to establish a canon of women writers due to Domenichi's casting of his subjects as curiosities and of himself as a collector. I found the section on women and the Virgilian corpus especially interesting, though that part of the study could have benefited from updating given the availability now of the works of numerous classically trained Renaissance Italian women writers in the University of Chicago Press series, the Other Voice in Early Modern Europe (OVEME). |
