{"product_id":"politics-gender-and-genre-margaret-brabant-9780367283735","title":"Politics, Gender, and Genre: The Political Thought of Christine de Pizan","description":"Christine de Pizan (ca. 1364-1429) wrote more than twenty books, including poetry, defenses of women, critiques of war, Utopian visions, and general political and social commentary. This body of writing not only supported her during her lifetime but also brought her fame, patronage, and influence in high places. The revival of interest in her work is one of the major successes in the movement to recognize \"lost\" or overlooked women in the history of intellectual thought. Her courageous defense of women makes her, in the eyes of most, a protofeminist figure, and the depth of her feminism is one of the key issues debated in these essays by the world's leading Christine scholars. Other important topics are Christine's contribution to early humanist thought and the various ways in which her unique position sheds light on medieval politics and society. This book is a valuable contribution to medieval studies and political theory as well as to the history of feminist thought. It will be essential reading for philosophers and political scientists and for medievalists in any discipline.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Brabant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367283735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367283735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs","brand":"Margaret Brabant","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48112877142271,"sku":"9780367283735","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1f90232-3af6-44c5-8a25-3e56fe3720eb.jpg?v=1769611544","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/politics-gender-and-genre-margaret-brabant-9780367283735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
