About This Item
Chicago and London: University of Chicago Press, 2007. Book. As New. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Large Octavo. Large 8vo. xxvi (ii), 365 (5) pp, illus. Women in Culture and Society series: First Edition, 2007. Not Price Clipped. Pristine, no wear. No markings, binding tight, clean, white and bright. 6.25" x 9.25". Tan cloth with red lettering to spine. Illustrated dj in acetate protector. "Even the most comprehensive Renaissance histories have neglected the vibrant groups of women writers that emerged in cities across Italy during the mid-1500s-and the thriving network of printers, publishers, and agents that specialized in producing and selling their books. In Publishing Women, Diana Robin finally brings to life this story of women's cultural and intellectual leadership in early modern Italy, illuminating the factors behind-and the significance of-their sudden dominance.".
