With this work Copia enters the annals of one of the most heated controversies of her age and secures a unique place for herself within Italian literature.

I shall trace the subject in different areas of relevance to Copia's life and writings, starting with her relations with members of her family and her interaction with her intellectual peers; continuing with pictorial and poetic evidence of 'the quest'; and concluding with a vindication of Copia's unwavering belief in the soul's immortality as proffered in an unexpected source: a wedding ode set to music. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Literary Criticism src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Nashim: A Journal of Jewish Women's Studies & Gender Issues is the property of Indiana University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
