Description

This scholarly work explores early modern gender history through the lyric poetry of Renaissance Italy, examining how the Italian Renaissance served as a transformative moment in the evolution of Western gender roles. The book argues that a confluence of cultural developments during this period disrupted centuries of Aristotelian binary thinking, allowing men and women to exploit Petrarchism's capacity for subjective expression and experimentation. As one of the most accessible literary genres of its time, Petrarchism enabled writers to imagine new gendered possibilities across realms including marriage, war, and religion. Published by Amsterdam University Press and distributed by Routledge, this work stands among the first studies to comprehensively examine how Renaissance poets challenged and reimagined gender conventions through verse, offering fresh insights into how literary culture shaped social understanding of gender during this pivotal historical period.
