Abstract: In Western literature, female gossips have inspired many theories and stories. In particular, I analyse Shakespeare’s Othello (1603), showing how rumors and their underlying emotional dynamics organised relations between the sexes, with particularly burdensome social consequences for women.

Sul pettegolezzo femminile, fra stereotipi e metafore letterarie.
