Heresy could be said to be a cultural construct manufactured by competing narratives. The articles in this volume examine the varieties of perceptions and representations of heresy in early modern France. In so doing, they reveal that such perceptions and representations have had more of an impact on our understanding of heresy than heresy itself. This, in turn, provides us with new and stimulating viewpoints on how heresy was recognized and depicted at the intersections of faith, art, gender, poetry, history, and politics.

It shows how her author function was mediated by early modern male editors, by the Giolito anthologies, and by various publishers, literary critics, and modern artists. The several communities that Morra’s poems produced are here envisioned as an organic rhizome, as theorized by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, since the transmittal and reception of her texts and ideas created a multiplicity of literary and virtual communities, including those crafted more recently by a French playwright and an Italian singer-songwriter. Morra’s oeuvre continues to dialogue with writers and readers and to generate a vibrant, prosperous afterlife constructed somewhere in between the early modern anthologies and the virtual communities of other early modern women writers.

Giorgos Plakatos’s chapter on discourses of the Venetian Inquisition on Jewish apostasy stresses the constant communication between Venice and Rome on the matter, but it could have been pushed further from a comparative viewpoint, since this is an area in which Spanish and especially Portuguese Inquisitions concentrated their activity. The case of Righetto, mentioned here, could also have been pursued further, since the Portuguese trial was very well transcribed and published by Ioly Zorattini. Katherine Aron-Beller addresses the jurisdiction of the Inquisition against professed Jews, either New Christian apostates or Jews accused of possessing forbidden books; disrespect for Christian rituals; desecration of Christian images; preventing other Jews from co...

Orphaned at the age of four, the young princess was raised at the court of King Francois I, under the maternal influence of both her sister, Queen Claude de France, and the king’s sister, Marguerite de Navarre, both of whom favored internal reform of the Catholic Church and supported like-minded intellectuals and priests. After her 1528 politically motivated marriage to Ercole d’Este, future Duke of Ferrara, Renee spent her adult life in Italy, where she was called Renata or Renea, and continued her associations with heterodox intellectuals. After the death of her husband in 1559, she returned to France to spend her dowager years at her château of Montargis, in the midst of the French Wars of Religion. While Renee has not yet earned the scholarly attention that has been devoted to her...
