Skills and merits of women: the renaissance writers in Cristoforo Bronzini
Abstract
In the dialogue Della Dignità e Nobiltà delle Donne (1622), Cristoforo Bronzini firmly affirms that there are many women throughout history who have distinguished themselves in the field of writing, despite obsolete prejudices: the article aims to investigate the ways in which Bronzini declines the paradigm of gender difference, offering in particular a brief overview of the humanistic-Renaissance writers that the author proposes as maximum exempla virtutis.
