Christine de Pizan

Christine de Pizan (1364–c.1430) was a Venetian-born French author, widely regarded as one of the first women in Europe to earn a living through writing. Her landmark work The Book of the City of Ladies is a powerful defence of women's capabilities and achievements, constructing an allegorical city populated by history's most remarkable women. The audiobook brings this foundational feminist text to modern listeners and is essential listening for anyone interested in women's history and medieval literature.
