Wordsmiths: Laudomia Forteguerri

Womanica - Un podcast de iHeartPodcasts and Wonder Media Network

Laudomia (1515-unknown) is thought to be Italy's earliest lesbian writer and may have been one of the first women who had their poetry discussed in an open setting at a lecture. She wrote sonnets dedicated to other high society women. She also helped in the construction of fortifications during the Siege of Siena.
