Tigress of Forli
Botticelli painted her, Machiavelli slandered her. She led troops into battle, married a Medici, and was imprisoned by the Borgias. The life of Caterina Sforza crossed the firmament of Renaissance Italy like a shooting star. This is her fascinating story.
Caterina
This new collection is a tribute to My mother who recently returned to heaven. A heaven I imagine without windows and without doors, as I believe it is accessed in a different way from that known to Us. This is an anthology that hopes to be a prayer of serenity, to You, who now perhaps sees much more than We do. Questa nuova silloge è un omaggio alla Mia mamma che è tornata da poco in cielo. Un cielo, quello, che Io immagino senza finestre e senza porte, perché là credo che si acceda in modo differente da quello a Noi noto. Un'antologia che desidera essere un augurio di serenità, a Lei che ora forse vede molto più di Noi.

Caterina Edwards
With the publication of The Lion's Mouth in 1982, Caterina Edwards made her mark as a novelist. Edward's works include short stories, novellas and a play and explore questions of identity for men and women. This is the first book on her literary achievement.
Daughter of Venice
Caterina Corner, a Venetian noblewoman and the last Queen of Cyprus, led a complex and remarkable life. In 1468, Corner married King Jacques II Lusignan of Cyprus at the behest of her family, whose ambitions matched those of the Venetian republic anxious to extend its empire. In the first year of her reign, pregnant and widowed, she became regent for the kingdom. This study considers for the first time the strategies of her reign, negotiating Venetian encroachment, family pressures, and the challenges of female rule. Using previously understudied sources, such as her correspondence with Venetian magistracies, the book shows how Corner marshalled her royal authority until and beyond her forced abdication in 1489. The unique perspective of Corner's life reveals new insights into Renaissance imperialism, politics, familial ambition, and conventions of ideal womanhood as revealed in the portraits, poetry, and orations dedicated to her.
The Love and Death of Caterina
Luciano Hernando Valdez is his Latin American nation's most celebrated novelist and he's suffering from writer's block. So far his latest great work comprises the words 'The scrawny yellow cat crossed the road'. He's tried all his usual tricks to get back on track - he's had a few debates with his trusty colleagues at the university, he's had an affair with the banker's wife, nothing will work. Until he meets Caterina. Beautiful, young and one of his biggest fans, she has idolised him since she was a child and he has inspired her to write. Convinced that falling in love with her, spending every minute he can alongside her, moulding her to his world, will unlock something and enable him to write, he pursues her and soon enough, he falls headlong into her arms. But it's only a matter of time before he murders her.
Caterina Sforza and the Art of Appearances
In the first major book in four decades on Caterina Sforza, Joyce de Vries presents a comprehensive study of the famous Italian noblewoman's cultural endeavors. De Vries explores Sforza's patronage, collecting, and participation in ritual practices, the complex connections between prescriptive literature and women's actions, and the mutability of Early Modern gender roles. The book also shows how Sforza's status as an exceptional woman developed in the centuries after her death.
