Description
Summary:Situating itself in a long tradition of studies of Anglo-Italian literary relations in the Renaissance, this book analyses the representation of female figures in extant Elizabethan translations of three major works of Italian epic poetry. In focusing on the English translators' treatment of women characters, Scarsi discovers a category which was both a source of major modifications, and an evident point of interest for English translators and readers
