Questa doppia biografia tratteggia le vite di due delle più famose protagoniste del Rinascimento italiano, Isabella d’Este marchesa di Mantova e Lucrezia Borgia duchessa di Ferrara, che divengono cognate in virtù del terzo matrimonio di Lucrezia con Alfonso d’Este. Erede di una grande dinastia, sottile stratega capace di vincere le più difficili partite dello scacchiere italiano, mecenate e collezionista, Isabella incarna il prototipo della donna politica cerebrale e ragionatrice, che antepone l’interesse dello Stato agli affetti. Lucrezia, figlia di un papa controverso e “carnale” come Alessandro VI, è invece capace di intense passioni e forti sentimenti, ma all’occorrenza si dimostra un’accorta governante e arriva a contendere a Isabella il primato di mecenate più celebrata della penisola. Le due cognate incrociano le loro esistenze con quelle dei maggiori personaggi del tempo, incarnando due diversi e significativi prototipi di “dame di potere e di corte”. Attraverso Isabella e Lucrezia, inoltre, il libro racconta nel dettaglio l’Italia dell’Umanesimo e del Rinascimento, mettendone in evidenza la grandezza e la tragicità, gli splendori e le miserie, la complessità e le contraddizioni, gli individualismi e i particolarismi che le impediranno per molti secoli ancora di divenire uno stato unitario. È, dunque, una biografia ma anche un’analisi politica, che attraverso lo studio del passato, delle Signorie, del papato, dell’impero, dei regni nazionali, serve a comprendere meglio l’Italia di oggi. Perché la storia, come direbbe Benedetto Croce, «è sempre storia contemporanea».

Isabella d’Este, Marchioness of Mantua (1474-1539), is one of the most studied figures of Renaissance Italy, as an epitome of Renaissance court culture and as a woman having an unusually prominent role in the politics of her day. This biography provides a well-rounded account of the full range of her activities and interests from her childhood to her final years as a dowager, and considers Isabella d’Este not as an icon but as a woman of her time and place in the world. It covers all aspects of her life including her relationship with her parents and siblings as well as with her husband and children; her interest in literature and music, painting and antiquities; her political and diplomatic activities; her concern with fashion and jewellery; her relations with other women; and her love of travel. In this book, grounded in an understanding of the context of the Italy of her day, the typical interests and behaviour of women of Isabella d’Este’s status within Renaissance Italy are distinguished from those that were unique to her, such as the elaborate apartments that she created for herself and her extensive surviving correspondence, which provides insights into all aspects of life in the major courts of northern Italy, centres of Renaissance culture. Providing fresh perspectives on one of the most famous figures of Renaissance Italy, Isabella d’Este will be of great interest to undergraduates and graduates of early modern history, gender studies, renaissance studies and art history.

Women, Diplomacy and International Politics since 1500 explores the role of women as agents of diplomacy in the trans-Atlantic world since the early modern age. Despite increasing evidence of their involvement in political life across the centuries, the core historical narrative of international politics remains notably depleted of women. This collection challenges this perspective. Chapters cover a wide range of geographical contexts, including Europe, Russia, Britain and the United States, and trace the diversity of women’s activities and the significance of their contributions. Together these essays open up the field to include a broader interpretation of diplomatic work, such as the unofficial avenues of lobbying, negotiation and political representation that made women central diplomatic players in the salons, courts and boudoirs of Europe. Through a selection of case studies, the book throws into new perspective the operations of political power in local and national domains, bridging and at times reconceptualising the relationship of the private to the public. Women, Diplomacy and International Politics since 1500 is essential reading for all those interested in the history of diplomacy and the rise of international politics over the past five centuries.

Women Reformers of Early Modern Europe provides an expansive view of women negotiating their faith, voice, and agency in the religious and cultural scene of the sixteenth-century reformations. Women from different geographic contexts (Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Holland, and Scandinavia) and from a broad spectrum of vocations and social standings are highlighted along with examples of their original writings in English translation (in some cases brand new). An international, interdisciplinary cohort of over thirty scholars provide cutting-edge scholarship on women, religion, and gender in the sixteenth-century reformation context. Chapters interpret historical sources relevant to the women in question and provide original material for a deeper understanding of each woman's specific negotiations about her faith and religious preferences, as well as about her specific options--as a woman. Most of the women in the book left a written record, providing a valuable window into women's spirituality and theology. Gender questions are engaged throughout the chapters that provide irrefutable evidence of women's essential roles in the reception and implementation of the Protestant confessions. An important voice comes from women who defended their right to profess Catholic faith. Thematic articles enhance the analysis of the roles, experiences, and contributions of individual women in different contexts and positions vis-à-vis reformation teachings. Women stand out as writers, theologians, historians, biblical interpreters, publishers, hymnwriters, rulers, pastoral care givers, defenders of justice, "heretics," rebels, midwives, mothers, and friends. The tone of the volume is scholarly but invites a broad spectrum of readers who have varying levels of background knowledge. It is especially suitable as a textbook or as a reference guide in different disciplines (reformation studies, church history, theological history, gender scholarship, early modern and sixteenth-century studies; and language studies).

Il volume analizza il rapporto tra intellettuali e potere nelle “periferie” del Regno di Sicilia e di Napoli in età medievale e moderna. Il tema costituisce un nodo centrale per la comprensione delle produzioni letterarie, storiografiche e, più in generale, testuali, soprattutto a partire dalla nascita delle corti, primari centri di aggregazione delle élites politico-culturali. In una prospettiva interdisciplinare, diversi studiosi riflettono sul ruolo svolto in vari contesti geografici dell’Italia meridionale da uomini e donne di lettere: contestazione o legittimazione del potere politico ma anche partecipazione a pratiche culturali più o meno strettamente ricollegabili alle evoluzioni dei sistemi di governo. Lo studio si integra con i risultati del progetto di ricerca DiLiBas e sviluppa gli spunti di riflessione avviati nel convegno Intellettuali e potere, il potere degli intellettuali: produzioni culturali tra centri e periferie del Regno in età tardo medievale e moderna, tenutosi nel marzo 2022 presso l’Università degli Studi della Basilicata.

A true story of vendetta and intrigue, triumph and tragedy, exile and repatriation, this book recounts the interwoven microhistories of Count Girolamo Della Torre, a feudal lord with a castle and other properties in the Friuli, and Giulia Bembo, grand-niece of Cardinal Pietro Bembo and daughter of Gian Matteo Bembo, a powerful Venetian senator with a distinguished career in service to the Venetian Republic. Their marriage in the mid-sixteenth century might be regarded as emblematic of the Venetian experience, with the metropole at the center of a fragmented empire: a Terraferma nobleman and the daughter of a Venetian senator, who raised their family in far off Crete in the stato da mar, in Venice itself, and in the Friuli and the Veneto in the stato da terra. The fortunes and misfortunes of the nine surviving Della Torre children and their descendants, tracked through the end of the Republic in 1797, are likewise emblematic of a change in feudal culture from clan solidarity to individualism and intrafamily strife, and ultimately, redemption. Despite the efforts by both the Della Torre and the Bembo families to preserve the patrimony through a succession of male heirs, the last survivor in the paternal bloodline of each was a daughter. This epic tale highlights the role of women in creating family networks and opens a precious window into a contentious period in which Venetian republican values clash with the deeply rooted feudal traditions of honor and blood feuds of the mainland.
