This weekend, I presented at UC Irvine's Honor's Conference on Christine de Pizan, the first known professional female writer in Europe! Originally, I was not going to share this on my channel then had various questions about it, so here we are. I know this is not the "usual" upload... whatever that means, however, I think there is a harmful religious aspect to this phenomenal woman's story. The fact that in the Medieval Ages, women were so looked down upon and did not have access to books or even an education as Pisan did, gave her an advantage to think critically about what philosophers and poets of that time period thought of women. It was also a starting place for her to build an allegorical city to uplift women. Christine was an early feminist before there was even a word for that.
In honor of Women's History Month, I give you Christine de Pizan and her Book of the City of Ladies! Which, I recommend too if you're looking for something fascinating to add to your TBR list!
