"The picaresque story of these engravings includes some of the best-known artists and rogues of sixteenth-century Italy. Although little has been written aboutI modi, and certainly nothing of this scope. Talvacchia's many-sided approach to her material rises gloriously to the provocative subject."--Ingrid D. Rowland, University of Chicago "A fascinating case study in the uses and transmissions of images and in the multiple valences of the sexually represented body in the Renaissance."--Leonard Barkan, New York UniversityTalvacchia, Bette is the author of 'Taking Position On the Erotic in Renaissance Culture', published 2001 under ISBN 9780691086835 and ISBN 0691086834.
