Professor Tylus, currently at Yale University, is a distinguished expert in early modern Italian literature, with a focus on women’s authorship, religious culture, and translation studies. Her work bridges the Renaissance and contemporary scholarship, exploring the legacies of figures like Gaspara Stampa and Lucrezia Tornabuoni. She has authored and translated several pivotal works, which illuminates women’s voices in spiritual and literary traditions.
This event will feature her insights into women’s authorship and translation from the Renaissance to today, addressing how early modern female writers navigated the complexities of authorship and how their works resonate in contemporary literature.
