Despite the fact that Gaspara Stampa (1523?-1554) has been
recognized as one of the greatest and most creative poets and
musicians of the Italian Renaissance, scholarship on her work has
been surprisingly scarce and uncoordinated. In recent years,
critical attention towards her work has increased, but until now
there have been no anthologies dedicated solely to Stampa.
Rethinking Gaspara Stampa in the Canon of Renaissance Poetry aims
to set a foundation for further Stampa studies by accounting for
her contributions to literature, music history, gender studies, the
history of ideas, philosophy, and other areas of critical thought.
This volume brings together an international group of
interdisciplinary scholars who employ varied methodologies to
explore multiple aspects of Stampa's work in dialogue with the most
recent scholarship in the field. The chapters emphasize the many
ways in which Stampa's poetry engages with multiple cultural
movements of early modern Italy and Europe, including: Ficinian and
Renaissance Neoplatonism, male-authored writing about women,
Longinus's theory of the sublime, the formation of writing
communities, the rediscovery of Aristotle's writings, and the
reimagined relation between human and natural worlds. Taken as a
whole, this volume presents a rich introduction to, and
interdisciplinary investigation of, Gaspara Stampa's impact on
Renaissance culture.
