About the book

In 1401, Christine de Pizan (1365a 1430?) wrote a letter to the provost of Lille criticizing the highly popular 'Romance of the Rose' for its unwarranted misogynistic depictions of women. Here, Hult collects debate documents, letters and excerpts from other works of Pizan, including one from 'City of Ladiesa' her major defense of women.
