Lo Stipo
Title:
Lo Stipo
Description:
Prolific author and performer Margherita Costa traveled from city to city to perform in the theaters and private salons of Europe’s great courts. She did not shy away from crossing the boundaries around decorous female writing, and some of her works have a feminist twist. These two works bound together include poems on unwanted pregnancy, female cosmetics, and sexual double standards.
