Emozioni ed immagini della donna nella letteratura classica e nella Humana Physiognomonia di della Porta. (2022)
In Humana Physiognomonia, Giambattista Della Porta presents a rich catalog of female images still in vogue in his time, linked to the traditional model of a woman who is weak and fragile by nature, which is distinguished only in exceptional cases or when she assumes masculine connotations. Thanks to a continuous reference to classical, literary and philosophical sources, Della Porta confirms himself as an attentive connoisseur and interpreter of the reality he investigates to immerse himself in the depth of what is inside it and which determines the actions, virtue and vice in men.
