==Life ==
Lucrezia Marinella was the daughter of a celebrated Physician and natural philosopher, Giovanni Marinelli and next to nothing is known of her Mother. He wrote novels, some of which were on women’s well-being, hygiene and beauty.〔Marinella, Lucrezia, and Anne Dunhill. 1999. ''The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men.'' Chicago: University of Chicago Press. (pg.3)〕 Although her father was not from Venice, Lucrezia and her family were "cittadinaza".〔Marinella, Lucrezia, and Stampino MG. 1998. ''Enrico; or Byzantium Conquered: A Heroic Poem''. Chicago: University of Chicago Press (pg.4)〕 Her brother Curzo Marinella was also a physician and she married a physician Girolamo Vacca. None of her children seem to have been born in Venice.〔Marinella, Lucrezia, and Stampino MG. 1998. Enrico; or Byzantium Conquered: A Heroic Poem. Chicago: University of Chicago Press (pg.4)〕 Her father might have been the vital link between her private studies and the writing and the wider world of Venetian literary circles.〔Marinella, Lucrezia, and Anne Dunhill. 1999. ''The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men.'' Chicago: University of Chicago Press.(pg. 3)〕 Many women back in those days usually entered into convents or became courtesans like the famous Veronica Franco. Entering a convent meant that a woman did have to be married off and was able to pursue education, freedom from marriage, and family life, and they could strive for holiness and sainthood. But, at the same time the Roman Catholic Church maintained rigid theories of gender and expectations of women’s place and nature. Also, being a courtesan would have meant that she could pursue knowledge and not be restricted to living the traditional life of a woman in Italian late Middle Ages but, at a very great price. However, Lucrezia Marinella did not enter the convent and wasn't pressured into marriage. She came from a professional family that very much encouraged her studies, and her father was extremely supportive.〔Marinella, Lucrezia, and Anne Dunhill. 1999. ''The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men.'' Chicago: University of Chicago Press.(pg. 1)〕 Marinella had a lot of support, which was not the norm, a lot of women’s family were greatly involved in their lives, pressuring them to do what they felt would be best for the family. Although Lucrezia’s writing brought her fame, she lived a life in seclusion. It is believed that her solitary life is what allowed her to write so much so soon. But, a life of seclusion is not unlike many other women in that time of her social rank. Many upper class women in that time normally stayed indoors and or at home so this was not strange. She did not travel, except to local shrines, there is no evidence she gathered with other authors for discussions, and no record of her even attending meetings held in academies outside.
