Summary | "La donna fiorentina del buon tempo antico" by Isidoro Del Lungo is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the role and representation of women in Florence, particularly during the early centuries of the commune, highlighting figures from Dante to Boccaccio, and the evolving societal expectations around femininity. The book's primary focus is on the everyday lives and struggles of women during this period, representing their strength and influence in a historical context. The opening of the text introduces the author’s intention to portray the life of Florentine women through various historical and literary lenses. Del Lungo notes that while women's contributions in Florence may not have been marked by ostentatious heroics like those in other Italian cities, their essential role in nurturing families and maintaining the social fabric is highlighted. The author refers to key figures such as Beatrice from Dante's works, and posits that the women of the early communes played crucial roles as mothers, educators, and moral supports, catering to both the needs of their families and their communities in an era marked by political turmoil and shifting social structures.
