Description

Zusammenfassung In 1401, Christine de Pizan wrote a letter to the provost of Lille criticizing the highly popular and widely read "Romance of the Rose" for its blatant and unwarranted misogynistic depictions of women. As a result a debate ensued. This book collects the letters, sermons, and excerpts from other works of Pizan - that give context to this debate.
