The Other Voice's edition of Barbara Torelli's pastoral drama
Partenia (c. 1586) is a groundbreaking contribution to the study of
early modern Italian literature and women's writing. This is the
first ever print edition of the earliest secular play by an Italian
woman, acclaimed at the time of its composition-the drama theorist
Angelo Ingegneri placed it on a par with Tasso's Aminta and
Guarini's Pastor fido-but long forgotten, to the extent that it was
believed lost until the early twentieth century, when the first
manuscript of it surfaced in Cremona.
