Out of the Archive: Four Newly-Identified Figures in Tullia d'Aragona's Rime della Signora Tullia di Aragona et di diversi a lei (1547)

This article analyzes the overall structure of Tullia d'Aragona's Rime della Signora Tullia di Aragona et di diversi a lei, published by Giolito in 1547, and identifies four of her poetic interlocutors whom previous scholarship has largely ignored-Latino Giovenale Manetti, Tiberio Nari, Lucantonio Cuppano, and Francesco Crasso. The identities of these four men help paint a more geographically diversified and politically engaged portrait of d'Aragona than previously depicted.
