Hailed by the generation's leading male literati as an equal, she was praised both for her impeccable command of Petrarchan style and for the unimpeachable chastity and piety of the persona she promoted through her literary works. This book presents for the very first time a body of Colonna's verse that reveals much about her poetic aims and outlook, while also casting new light on one of the most famous friendships of the age. Sonnets for Michelangelo, originally presented in manuscript form to her close friend Michelangelo Buonarroti as a personal gift, illustrates the striking beauty and originality of Colonna's mature lyric voice and distinguishes her as a poetic innovator who would be widely imitated by female writers in Italy and Europe in the sixteenth century. After three centuries of relative neglect, this new edition promises to restore Colonna to her rightful place at the forefront of female cultural production in the Renaissance. 410 0$aOther voice in early modern Europe. 606 $aPOETRY / General$2bisacsh 610 $apoetry, literature, women writers, female authors, authorship, italy, renaissance, gender, feminism, literati, petrarchan sonnets, form, verse, chastity, piety, femininity, social norms, michelangelo buonarroti, friendship, innovation, europe, bilingual, translation, virtue, public sphere, cultural production, vittoria colonna, celebrity, fame. 615 7$aPOETRY / General. 676 $a851/.3 700 $aColonna$b Vittoria$f1492-1547.$0178137 701 $aBrundin$b Abigail$0952256 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777017003321 996 $aSonnets for Michelangelo$93821848 997 $aUNINA
