Review Quotes
Unn Falkeid, University of Oslo, Norway
“A full translation of Colonna’s Rime is very much awaited by students and scholars all over the world. . . . Targoff writes with a rare enthusiasm and sophistication, drawing her readers through Colonna’s rich life—her friendships, love, widowhood, literary ambitions, religious yearnings—while being both fascinatingly accessible and editorially innovative."
