About this product

Product Information

Christine de Pizan (c1364-1429) wrote more than 20 books earning her fame, patronage, and influence in high places. The revival of interest in her work is one of the major successes in the movement to regain lost or overlooked women in the history of intellectual thought. These essays by the world's leading Christine scholars debate the depth of her feminism, her contribution to early humanist thought, and the ways in which her unique position sheds light on medieval politics and society. As a contribution to medieval studies and political theory, this is a useful book for philosophers and political scientists and for medievalists in any discipline.
