Laura Battiferra and Her Literary Circle
An Anthology: A Bilingual Edition
“An impressive and revelatory achievement, admirably combining monumental scholarly range and editorial rigor with elegance of presentation and lightness of touch.”
“Battiferra’s literary presence at a time of cultural and religious transition . . . give Kirkham a fascinating array of multiple contexts for Battiferra’s work, which she so thoroughly and sensitively elucidates for her readers. As a result Battiferra’s poetry, personality, and talent are resurrected for twenty-first-century readers to appreciate fully.”
“Kirkham’s hugely scholarly edition and translation . . . performs an invaluable service for the academic community. . . . Kirkham’s translations are careful and sensitive, and the parallel text allows the reader of Italian to gain a full sense of the poet's finely wrought style in the original texts.”
