Sorelle di Querelle: poetesse dell’ al-Andalus, trobairitz e poetesse italiane del Duecento e del Trecento

Abstract

The debate on the Querelle des Femmes during the 16th and 17th centuries in Italy is based on different male and female authors’ dissertations. This Querelle des Femmes can be traced back to Italian women poets in the 13th and 14th centuries. This paper analyses some topics dealt with by these Italian women poets and studies the features they share with preceding al-Andalusian women poets and trobairitz.
