Mirrors, inscriptions, costume, language, history, society, sexuality, art—these were the areas of Etruscan studies in which Larissa Bonfante was an internationally admired expert. Her contributions have been influential over a period of more than 40 years and will always be remembered for what she initiated or added to the dialogue. She also took an interest in many other aspects of cultural studies, some quite surprising. Larissa’s lively curiosity and intellect led her to translate the medieval plays of Hroswitha of Gandersheim (with her daughter Alexandra Bonfante Warren), to study and publish the art of the north Italian ancient culture known as the Situla Peoples, to collaborate on articles on Michelangelo and Poussin (with the present writer), and to organize a world-class conference featuring Scythians, Thracians, Celts and other “barbarians” of ancient Europe. Over many decades, Larissa Bonfante was the recognized leader who brought together the Etruscan scholarly community in the USA, beginning in 1973 with her work on the American volumes of the Corpus Speculorum Etruscorum, for which she guided to completion 4 fascicles, including her own superb volume on the collection of mirrors in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. She was the founder of the American section of the prestigious Istituto Nazionale di Studi Etruschi e Italici, reaching across the divide of the Atlantic to forge stronger bonds between American and European colleagues. Conscripted by Jane Whitehead to collaborate in the editing of the journal Etruscan Studies and the annual newspaper Etruscan News (which became the official organ of the American Section of the Istituto) Larissa played a most important role in promoting the publication of scholarly articles and reviews, and in developing a kaleidoscope of the latest news of excavations, exhibitions, books, conferences, awards, achievements, and poetry about the Etruscans, along with amusing jokes and photos of Archeocats and moving tributes to beloved colleagues who had passed from our midst. Larissa loved to bring attention to worthwhile but neglected corners of classical studies. Among her proudest achievements were her co-edited volumes of Classical Antiquities at New York University (Rome, 2006; with Blair Fowlkes) and The Collection of Antiquities of the American Academy in Rome (Ann Arbor, 2016, with Helen Nagy).

镜子、铭文、服装、语言、历史、社会、性、艺术——这些都是伊特鲁里亚人研究的领域，拉里萨·邦凡特在这方面是一位享誉国际的专家。她的贡献在40多年的时间里一直具有影响力，人们将永远记住她发起或增加的对话。她还对文化研究的许多其他方面产生了兴趣，有些方面非常令人惊讶。Larissa活泼的好奇心和智慧使她翻译了Gandersheim的Hroswitha的中世纪戏剧(与她的女儿Alexandra Bonfante Warren)，研究并出版了意大利北部古代文化的艺术，被称为Situla民族，与米开朗基罗和普桑(与现任作者)合作撰写了关于米开朗基罗和普桑的文章，并组织了一次世界级的会议，其中包括斯基泰人，色雷斯人，凯尔特人和其他古代欧洲的“野蛮人”。几十年来，Larissa Bonfante是将美国伊特鲁里亚学术界聚集在一起的公认的领导者，从1973年开始，她在《伊特鲁里亚文集》的美国卷中工作，她指导完成了4卷，包括她自己在大都会艺术博物馆收藏的镜子集。她是久负盛名的意大利国立研究学院(Istituto Nazionale di Studi Etruschi e Italici)美国分部的创始人，跨越了大西洋的鸿沟，在美国和欧洲同事之间建立了更牢固的联系。在简·怀特海德的征召下，拉丽莎参与了《伊特鲁里亚研究》杂志和《伊特鲁里亚新闻》的编辑工作，《伊特鲁里亚新闻》后来成为伊特鲁里亚研究所美国部分的官方报纸。拉丽莎在促进学术文章和评论的出版，以及将有关伊特鲁里亚人的发掘、展览、书籍、会议、奖项、成就和诗歌的最新消息变成万花筒方面发挥了最重要的作用。还有有趣的笑话和始祖的照片，以及对从我们中间离开的亲爱的同事的感人致敬。拉里萨喜欢引起人们对古典研究中有价值但被忽视的角落的关注。她最引以为傲的成就是在纽约大学与人合编了几卷《古典古物》(罗马，2006;《罗马美国学院古物收藏》(安娜堡，2016年，与海伦·纳吉合著)。技巧、耐心、毅力、热情——这些就是我要找的人

Abstract Sketches of Etruscan Places is especially important among D. H. Lawrence’s later works not only because it is the work that completes the image of a restless, indefatigable traveler looking for a new gospel in old cultures and in faraway countries, but also because it offers stimulating and surprisingly modern reflections on the relationship between dominant and subordinate cultures.For centuries historians, archaeologists, linguists and scholars had tried to penetrate the mystery of the Etruscans in order to explain their origin, interpret their symbols and read their language. Lawrence attempted to give his own interpretation of that ancient mysterious world as he viewed the Etruscans as the symbol of a lost vitality. His interpretation of this lost civilization insists on the “manipulation of cultural heritage,” which anticipates ideas expressed by Ronald Barthes in Mythologies (1957). As a result, Lawrence undermines traditional views of Etruscan civilization as vassal to Greek and Roman civilization and defends its individuality. Finally, Lawrence anticipates post-colonial ideas by deconstructing the centrality of the Western historical and cultural system of values and reconstructing, although partially, the non-canonical multiplicity of ethnic separateness.

Abstract This paper aims at giving an overview of the quantitative and qualitative dimension of the female element in the field of Etruscan votive inscriptions. It offers a systematic discussion of dedications set by Etruscan women and attested by inscriptions from the Archaic to the Hellenistic period. The study does not focus primarily on religious aspects, but by taking into account the underlying social context it tries to cast some additional light on the role of women in Etruscan society.
