The metamorphoses of the myth of Lucretia are innumerable. Even preserving her essence and profound meaning, the Roman matron has crossed the centuries, met and bewitched three eighteenth-century authors: Goldoni, Richardson and Lessing. They perceived her call and reinterpreted her story, each in his own peculiar way.
