With Love Enamored and Driven Mad, Lucrezia Marinella puts her mark
on classical mythology and literary antecedents. She transforms
Cupid from all-powerful god to wayward adolescent who falls to his
own haughtiness while having female characters (such as Venus) take
on distinctly positive roles. From the literary standpoint, she
demonstrates her deep knowledge of classical and vernacular
authors, from Ovid to Apuleius and Prudentius, and from Dante to
Tasso, with numerous forays into Petrarchan poetics. The Other
Voice in Early Modern Europe - The Toronto Series, volume 72
