Paperback. Condizione: New. Christine de Pizan was born in Italy and moved to the French court of Charles V when she was four years old. She led a life of learning, stimulated by her reading and by her drive to engage with the cultural and political issues of her day. As a young widow she sought to support her family through writing, and she broke new ground by pursuing a life as an author and self-publisher, producing an astonishingly large and varied body of work. Her books, owned and read by some of the most important figures of her day, addressed politics, philosophy, government, ethics, the conduct of war, autobiography and biography, and religious subjects.The God of Love's Letter (1399), Christine de Pizan's first defense of women, is arguably her most succinct statement about gender. It also rebukes the thirteenth-century Romance of the Rose and anticipates Christine's City of Ladies. The Tale of the Rose (1402) responds to the growth in chivalric orders for the defense of women by arguing that women, not men, should choose members of the "Order of the Rose." Both poems are freshly edited here from their earliest manuscripts and each is newly translated into English.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. An early Tudor translation of the Cite des dames, a crucial argument written by Christine de Pizan on the importance of women. Christine de Pizan's defense of women against centuries of misogyny, Cite des dames, was the only work of literature translated into English by Brian Anslay, an administrator in the household of King Henry VII. While numerous manuscripts were held in royal and aristocratic libraries, Anslay's printed translation enabled a broader range of readers to appreciate the arguments for female rule crucial to the reigns of Mary I and Elizabeth I. Anslay's translation also played a key role in the late-nineteenth-century revival of interest in Christine. This modernization of Anslay's Tudor English makes his translation accessible to contemporary readers while preserving the rhythms of early Tudor prose. It includes an extensive introduction and notes highlighting both the history of the language and the cultural references embodied in the text. "A transcription into modernized early modern English of The Boke of the Cyte of Ladyes, Brian Ansley's 1521 translation of Christine de Pizan's famous and epochal Livre de la citae des dames (c. 1405), the first version to be printed in any language and the only printed version available to readers for the next four and one half centuries"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
