After the first research, which started from the decision to bring out from the cor- respondence an almost unknown Polissena Malvezzi, in this second contribution dedicated to her, again thanks to her correspondence, we can better specify her profile of a woman immersed in the social and political plots of her time. We can also understand that she was placed in a demi-monde at the service of the highest aristocracy and she was able to keep their secrets and to exploit their value in order to obtain help, protection, intercession.

Dopo la prima ricerca, partita dalla decisione di far emergere dal carteggio una pressoché sconosciuta Polissena Malvezzi, in questo secondo contributo a lei de- dicato, sempre grazie alle sue lettere, possiamo precisare meglio il suo profilo di donna immersa negli intrecci sociali e politici del suo tempo, collocata in un demi-monde al servizio dell’aristocrazia più alta, abile nel favorirne e custodirne i segreti e nel valutarne al bisogno il prezzo quando si possa chiedere aiuto, prote- zione, intercessione.

Per chiudere il cerchio: note su Polissena Malvezzi Sanseverino

Abstract

After the first research, which started from the decision to bring out from the cor- respondence an almost unknown Polissena Malvezzi, in this second contribution dedicated to her, again thanks to her correspondence, we can better specify her profile of a woman immersed in the social and political plots of her time. We can also understand that she was placed in a demi-monde at the service of the highest aristocracy and she was able to keep their secrets and to exploit their value in order to obtain help, protection, intercession.
