Description

Christine de Pizan's Livre de la Cite des Dames (1405) is justly renowned for its full-scale assault on the misogynist stereotypes which dominated the culture of the Middle Ages. This study shows the text's underlying unity and its insistence on the moral, if not the social, equality of the sexes.
