Copertina di Gabriella Scarlatta: The Disperata, from Medieval Italy to Renaissance France (PDF)

This study explores how the themes of the disperata genre – including hopelessness, death, suicide, doomed love, collective trauma, and damnations – are creatively adopted by several generations of poets in Italy and France, to establish a tradition that at times merges with, and at times subverts, Petrarchism.
