This Catalogue provides a synoptic view of the scholarship of Marianne Shapiro (1940-2003), demonstrably the most accomplished and versatile American Italianist of the twentieth century.

This Second Edition includes tributes by a colleague, Robert Hatten (Professor of Music Theory, Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University, Bloomington), and a former doctoral student, Claudia Moscovici (Notable writers.com).
