The True History of Catharina Vizzani
The Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 107 with Heather Rose Jones
This is the exciting and somewhat surprising story of an 18th century Italian woman who received a surprising level of acceptance for her sexual orientation, both from her parents and from an employer.
In this episode we talk about:
- The outline of Catherine Vizzani’s life
- Readings from the English translation of her biography, in all their 18th century glory
- The full text of the 1755 English translations of Catherine Vizzani’s biography can be found here.
This topic is discussed in one or more entries of the Lesbian Historic Motif Project here:
