Veronese's account focuses on her unique experience as a peasant girl who came of age among the Venetian elite, and details how she attained a certain renown in and out of Italy by improvising, writing, and publishing her own lyrics. Courting Celebrity is a bilingual annotated edition of Veronese's autobiography. To better elucidate Veronese's thinking, the book includes the autobiographical writing of another contemporary Italian poet, Teresa Bandettini, a well-known Tuscan poet-improviser. The book offers a substantial sample of Veronese's poems, translated and in the original. These compositions, together with detailed bibliographical documentation, point to the success of Veronese's autobiographical enterprise and offer an unparalleled view of both high society and popular culture at the time. In doing so, this text illustrates women's practice in two key literary genres, poetry and autobiography, and illuminates the strategies of women's self-fashioning and pursuit of celebrity."-- $c Provided by publisher. 546 $a Original Italian text with English translation. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 259-271) and index. 600 10 $a Veronese, Angela, $d 1778-1847. 600 10 $a Bandettini, Teresa, $d 1763-1837. 600 17 $a Bandettini, Teresa, $d 1763-1837. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00134744 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a Women poets, Italian $y 19th century $v Biography. 650 0 $a Autobiographies $z Italy. 650 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00822593 650 7 $a Women poets, Italian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178358 651 0 $a Italy $v Biography. 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 655 2 $a Autobiography $0 (DNLM)D020493 655 7 $a autobiographies (literary works) $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300080104 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000520 776 08 $i Online version: $t Courting celebrity. $d Toronto ; Buffalo ; London : University of Toronto Press, 2023 $z 9781487546410 $z 9781487546410 $w (OCoLC)1350381718 700 1 $a Ward, Adrienne, $d 1957- $e editor. $e editor. 700 1 $a Zanini-Cordi, Irene, $e editor. $e editor. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Veronese, Angela, $d 1778-1847. $t Notizie sulla vita di Aglaja Anassillide scritte da lei medesima. 700 12 $i Container of (expression): $a Veronese, Angela, $d 1778-1847. $t Notizie sulla vita di Aglaja Anassillide scritte da lei medesima. $l English. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Veronese, Angela, $d 1778-1847. $t Poems. $k Selections. 700 12 $i Container of (expression): $a Veronese, Angela, $d 1778-1847. $t Poems. $k Selections. $l English. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Bandettini, Teresa, $d 1763-1837. $t Autobiografia. 700 12 $i Container of (expression): $a Bandettini, Teresa, $d 1763-1837. $t Autobiografia. $l English. 830 0 $a Toronto Italian studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117013631.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F97D5AD83D8C11EE8AE814B62EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
