Letteratura italiana. Studi di genere. Cataloghi. Rinascimento italiano. ABSTRACT Starting from 1404, with the publication of Christine de Pizan's Città delle dame , in Europe we are witnessing the birth of the complex debate around the nature and virtues of women. There are many authors and authors who actively participate in the Querelle des femmes, questioning the social, artistic and political role of women. Defenders and detractors of the female cause confront each other through polarizing discourses that characterize and occupy over two centuries of European literature. The works of the controversy question the image of women as a naturally inferior subject, retracing the history of access to education and marriage relationships. The classical tradition of exempla is used by various authors who use female models belonging to history and mythology to affirm and defend equality between the sexes. In this article we follow the examples proposed by Cristoforo Bronzini in his Della Dignità e della nobiltà delle donne (1622) and outline the profiles of women, real and imaginary, who have contributed to the development of the ongoing process of female emancipation.","PeriodicalId":55917,"journal":{"name":"LaborHistorico","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48490264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Starting with an analysis of Bronzini’s manuscript Dichiaratione in defence of his text, this essay aims to reconstruct the problematic loci that hindered the work’s dissemination from the outset, namely the author’s courageous reflections on the sacred scriptures, contrary to Decree II of Session IV of the Council of Trent on the interpretation of sacred texts. The analysis of the Dichiaratione allows scholars to enter into Bronzini’s readings, who makes use not only of the sixteenth-century philogynist line, as recognisable as it is problematic, but also of contemporary moral literature and patristic sources.","PeriodicalId":55917,"journal":{"name":"LaborHistorico","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46635362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to analyze Dialogo d´amore (1562) by the renowned humanist and women´s advocate Lodovico Domenichi. It is a lesser known text, but a highly representative one of the poetic antinomy physical love – spiritual love, which imbued the cultural debate of the era, hinting a more down-to-earth style than the amorous neo-platonism of Leon Hebreo. Similarly, the protagonism of the woman stands out, inusual both in her preponderance in the dialogue as much as in the application of her philosophical and poetic knowledge in the analysis of the different aspects of the theory of love.","PeriodicalId":55917,"journal":{"name":"LaborHistorico","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44630469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the theme of ingratitude was of obvious interest for sixteenth-century Italian intellectuals, an important new feature lies in the form chosen by the twenty scholars who sign the volume: the paradox. In this book, several of the Intronati address this question and manage to surprise the public by providing arguments that exonerate women by revisiting the hackneyed, rigid Neoplatonic concepts of love in the 1660s. In this essay, the theme of female ingratitude is analyzed mainly in paradoxes four (“That tyrants do not do what they wish”), seven (“That the one that does not love should be loved more than the one that loves”) and nine (“That a woman should love an ugly man more than a handsome one”). The ideas expressed therein are related to the works of important intellectuals of this time who deal with the same subject in a sometimes very discordant way: Alessandro Piccolomini, Vitale Zuccolo and Benedetto Varchi. Through this comparison we can see the bold and unanimous defense of women by the Intronati, without, however, attacking the prevailing ideas of the time that could leave women in a precarious situation.","PeriodicalId":55917,"journal":{"name":"LaborHistorico","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44986393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
