Abstract

Jacob Burckhardts gedachte dat vrouwen net als mannen typische vertegenwoordigers geweest waren van de 'renaissancistische persoonlijkheid', leidde niet bij alle geschiedschrijvers tot instemming. Sommige vonden zelfs dat er voor vrouwen helemaal geen Renaissance bestaan had. Dit boekje is niet alleen een bijdrage aan de gedachtenwisseling over de positie van de vrouw in de Renaissance, maar ook een leidraad in de discussie die hierover al meer dan een eeuw gevoerd wordt. De lijnen van dit debat worden in een historiografische inleiding uiteengezet, en een uitgebreide bibliografie biedt de lezer de mogelijkheid zich verder te oriënteren. Er wordt ook nieuw onderzoek gepresenteerd. Vier auteurs behandelen verschillende aspecten van het onderwerp: Nederlandse dichteressen uit de Gouden Eeuw, Johan van Beverwijcks verhandeling over vrouwen, autobiografieën van Spaanse religieuzen, en opvattingen over moederschap.

Abstract

This collection argues that gender must be considered as both an approach to history, and as a reflection of the deep workings of the lived, historical past. The sixteen original essays explore social and cultural expressions of gender in Europe from the fourteenth to the eighteenth centuries. They examine theories and practices of gender in domestic, religious, and political contexts, including the Reformation, the convent, the workplace, witchcraft, the household, literacy, the arts, intellectual spheres, and cultures of violence and memory. The volume exposes the myriad ways in which gender was actually experienced, together with the strategies used by individual men and women to negotiate resilient patriarchal structures. Overall, the collection opens up new synergies for thinking about gender as a category of historical analysis and as a set of experiences central to late medieval and early modern Europe.

Abstract

A gifted poet, a women's rights activist, and an expert on moral and natural philosophy, Lucrezia Marinella (1571-1653) was known throughout Italy as the leading female intellectual of her age. Born into a family of Venetian physicians, she was encouraged to study, and, fortunately, she did not share the fate of many of her female contemporaries, who were forced to join convents or were pressured to marry early. Marinella enjoyed a long literary career, writing mainly religious, epic, and pastoral poetry, and biographies of famous women in both verse and prose. Marinella's masterpiece, The Nobility and Excellence of Women, and the Defects and Vices of Men was first published in 1600, composed at a furious pace in answer to Giusepe Passi's diatribe about women's alleged defects. This polemic displays Marinella's vast knowledge of the Italian poetic tradition and demonstrates her ability to argue against authors of the misogynist tradition from Boccaccio to Torquato Tasso. Trying to effect real social change, Marinella argued that morally, intellectually, and in many other ways, women are superior to men.
