«I sonetti d'amore» is a collection of sonnets by the Italian poetess Gaspara Stampa, published by Newton Compton in paperback (100 pages, in Italian).
The volume brings together 218 sonnets, selected from Gaspara Stampa's Rime, tracing an intense love story of autobiographical inspiration. It is considered one of the first examples of female poetry on a secular subject. The verses reflect the unrequited passion for Collatino di Collalto, with jealousy, solitude and brief moments of fulfilment.
Complete edition edited by Marta Savini, published in 1994 in the Tascabili Economici Newton collection.
For lovers of Italian Renaissance poetry and for those seeking one of the first female voices in European lyric poetry.
