DrPragyaAgarwal: From the Rime by Gaspara Stampa in Elena Ferrante’s ‘In the Margins’: here was Stampa saying to me that the female pen precisely because it is unexpected within the male tradition had to make an enormous courageous effort - as today- to employ ‘uncommon skill’ and acquire ‘style’

A thread.
Inframethod: "Have you imagined Gaspara Stampa intensely enough?"
I doubt it. I think you probably rushed in there like a fool and said what you thought of the whole rotten business. But was that you speaking? Were those *your* thoughts, *your* feelings? Or was it the discourse again?

lancaster_words: We begin Friday with Gaspara Stampa (translated from the Italian by Lynne Lawner). "Her poetry is unusually personal within the bounds of 16th century Petrarchan convention."
Satyrane: That time of year thou mayst in me behold when I ask myself (again) why I don’t just transform my Italian Renaissance module into 12 weeks of Gaspara Stampa. There is no critical commentary on Petrarchism that comes close to the level of nuanced interrogation her Rime provide.

Lokster71: It turns out Gaspara Stampa is considered to be the finest female poet of the Italian Renaissance.
