The Other Voice’s edition of Barbara Torelli’s pastoral drama Partenia (c. 1586) is a groundbreaking contribution to the study of early modern Italian literature and women’s writing. This is the first ever print edition of the earliest secular play by an Italian woman, acclaimed at the time of its composition—the drama theorist Angelo Ingegneri placed it on a par with Tasso’s Aminta and Guarini’s Pastor fido—but long forgotten, to the extent that it was believed lost until the early twentieth century, when the first manuscript of it surfaced in Cremona.
Lisa Sampson is Senior Lecturer in Italian Studies at the University of Reading (UK), the author of Pastoral Drama in Early Modern Italy: The Making of a New Genre (2006) and co-editor (with Virginia Cox) of Maddalena Campiglia’s Flori, a Pastoral Drama (OV Chicago series, 2004). Barbara Burgess-Van Aken is a SAGES Fellow in the Department of English at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, where she completed her PhD in 2007: “Partenia: A Bilingual Critical Edition.”
