(La) Compiuta Donzella, called either di Firenze or Fiorentina, was the earliest woman poet of the Italian language, active in the second half of the 13th century.
In A la stagion che 'l mondo foglia e fiora ("In the season when the world sends forth leaves and flowers"), Compiuta complains of her father's choice of a husband for her.
The famous Italian poet Guittone d'Arezzo, who mentions her by name in his fifth letter, may have addressed it to her.
Compiuta's vocabulary was influenced by her knowledge of Occitan literature and the work of the troubadours.
Thus, she contrasts cortesia (courtliness) with villania (villainy), terms borrowed from the setting of aristocratic court.
