Summary "Rime di Tullia d'Aragona, cortigiana del secolo XVI" by Tullia d'Aragona is a collection of poetry from the Renaissance period, likely composed during the 16th century. This work highlights the life and experiences of Tullia d'Aragona, a courtesan who navigates the complexities of love, societal norms, and artistic expression of her time, often reflecting on themes of desire and intellectual companionship. The opening of the text introduces the context of the Renaissance and the role of the courtesan, discussing the historical significance of figures like Tullia amidst the shifting cultural landscape of the era. It outlines the evolution of the courtesan's identity, positioning her as both an object of desire and an intellectual equal to the learned women of her society. Additionally, the text hints at Tullia's upbringing and education, suggesting she rose above her controversial status through her wit, charm, and literary talent, as she grapples with her identity and relationships within a male-dominated world.
