Veronica, meretrice e scrittora

Rate this book
Uno spaccato in forma teatrale sulla vita di Veronica Franco, cortigiana e poetessa, celebrata per la sua straordinaria bellezza e vissuta a Venezia dal 1546 al 1591. Non rispetta la realtà storica (Veronica Franco non si ammalò di peste, per esempio), ma sfrutta la figura della Franco per esplorare come la schiavitù del corpo fosse necessaria per conquistare quella dello scrittoio.

79 pages, Hardcover

First published January 1, 1992
