Reviews

"This important edition of Angela Veronese's autobiography and poetry, including English translations and a significant critical apparatus, provides a lively portrait of cultural life in the early nineteenth century that will appeal to a wide audience. Featuring many prominent literary figures active in Northern Italy in the period, it stands as a vital resource for students of Italian literature, literary scholars, and historians interested in women authors and intellectual culture."--Susan Dalton, Associate Professor of History, Université de Montréal
"The publication of the autobiographies of Angela Veronese and Teresa Bandettini, both in their original and in translation, will broaden the scholarly perspective on eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century life writing. Worthy of high praise, this book will also benefit graduate and undergraduate students by providing them with a deeper understanding of the pivotal contribution of women writers to the making of the autobiographical genre."--Stefania Buccini, Halls-Bascom Professor of Italian, University of Wisconsin-Madison
