Though without formal training, Matraini excelled in a number of literary genres popular at the time-poetry, religious meditation, discourse, and dialogue. In her midlife, she published a collection of erotic love poetry, but later in life her work shifted toward a search for spiritual salvation. Near the end of her life, she published a new poetry retrospective. Mostly available in only a handful of rare book collections, her writings are now adeptly translated here for an English-speaking audience and situated historically in an introduction by noted Matraini expert Giovanna Rabitti. Selected Poetry and Prose allows the poet to finally take her place as one of the seminal authors of the Renaissance, next to her contemporaries Vittoria Colonna and Laura Battiferra, also published in the Other Voice series. 410 0$aOther Voice in Early Modern Europe 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / General$2bisacsh 610 $achiara matraini, italy, literature, torquato tasso, pietro bembo, lyric, petrarch, dialogue, religious meditation, discourse, love poetry, erotic, epic, female author, women writers, salvation, spirituality, religion, canon, renaissance, laura battiferra, vittoria colonna, meditations, penitential psalms, king david, virgin mary, worship, piety, redemption. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / General. 676 $a858/.309 700 $aMatraini$b Chiara$f1515-1604?$01148033 701 $aMaclachlan$b Elaine$0529391 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974593603321 996 $aSelected poetry and prose$94356080 997 $aUNINA
