ages‚ women have been portrayed in literature as vile and corrupt. During this time‚ Christine de Pizan became a well educated woman and counteracted the previous notions of men’s slander against women. With her literary works‚ Pizan illustrated to her readers and women that though education they can aspire to be something greater than what is written in history. Through the use of real historical examples‚ Christine de Pizan’s‚ The Book of the City of Ladies‚ acts as a defense against the commonly

For millennia‚ women have left their mark on the world‚ at times changing the course of history and at other times influencing small but significant spheres of life.

Christine de Pizan An unlikely candidate to dispute the unfair‚ misogynistic treatment of women by men and society‚ Christine de Pizan successfully challenged the accepted negative views that were being expressed about women by the all-male literary world of her era. Part of Christine’s uniqueness stems from the time in which she lived‚ the middle to late 1300’s. The lack of a positive female role model to pattern herself after made Christine a true visionary in the fight for the equal rights of

In this essay‚ I would like to relate Christine de Pizan’s and Martin Luther’s idea of faith with the use of good works to the question of individuality. For Christine‚ faith through good works is essential in shaping one’s individuality; as for Luther‚ faith alone‚ is used to define one as a Christian.

There is no paradise on Earth. Everywhere has its own troubles‚ at least according to Christine De Pizan they do. In her novel The Book of the Body Politic‚ Christine provides an analogy of a political hierarchy in the biological form of a human body; with the head being the king‚ the hands being the army and nobility‚ and the feet being the common people. In order for a political system to be ‘healthy’ all parts must work in conjunction with one another- otherwise the entire system faces collapse/death
