Christine de Pizan
À propos de cet audio
Shocked and distressed by a male writer's vilification of women, Christine de Pizan has a powerful dreamlike vision in which she is visited by three personified Virtues: Reason, Rectitude and Justice. They tell her she has been chosen to write a book which will be like a city, housing virtuous women and protecting them from feminist attack.
Heroines past and present form the foundations of this city - biblical and mythical heroines, ruling queens, Christian saints, and inventors are among them. Partly myth, partly fact, The Book of the City of Ladies is an extraordinary, pioneering and impassioned defense of women that set out to shatter medieval misogynist cliches, and serve to instill self-worth in its female listeners of the time.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

After more than 600 years more relevant then ever.
Once I figured out the style of writing, I could not help but smile while listening. This is a wonderful, inspiring, and instructive work. I will be sharing it with all the ladies I know, I encourage everyone to and their daughters to read this book.the performance of this recording is excellent, very smooth, relaxing and easy to listen to. 5 stars
