In The Unique Women of the Venetian Republic, international award-winning author Connie Spenuzza vibrantly chronicles women's contributions to Venice from the 1400s to the end of the Republic in 1797. Despite societal norms that prohibited these Venetian women to advance as artists, authors, craftswomen, musicians, publishers, scholars--and even divas and courtesans par excellence--their dauntless search for knowledge transformed La Serenissima.
