Building on recent scholarly work on literary academies in Italy, this article examines the role of women in seventeenth-century academies in Italy, and focuses on the membership and activities of Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia, elected to seven academies in five cities between 1669 and 1672. Prior to admission to the Arcadia Academy, which included many female members, Cornaro Piscopia became a member of the Paduan Ricovrati, the Venetian Pacifici, and the Roman Infecondi. She became director of the Pacifici, for which she delivered three formal speeches of high erudition in vernacular. This article explores Cornaro Piscopia’s activities as author and presenter of academic speeches for the Pacifici, and as author of poems for the Infecondi. The article also shows how, by accepting Cornaro Piscopia as its first female member, the Paduan Ricovrati played a crucial role in spearheading female participation in traditionally male-dominated Seicento academies.
