Description
"In 1455, Lusanna, a beautiful Florentine woman of the artisan class, brought suit against her wealthy, high-born lover Giovanni, claiming that she and Giovanni had been secretly married during their clandestine twelve-year affair. Blending scholarship with insightful narrative, Gene Brucker portrays an extraordinary womna who challenged the unwritten codes and barriers of social hierarchy of her time."--Page 4 of cover.
