Cf. - Jacqueline Broad, Karen Green, Virtue, Liberty, and Toleration: Political Ideas of European Women, 1400-1800. Springer, 2007. NB This volume challenges the view that women have not contributed to the historical development of political ideas, and highlights the depth and complexity of womens political thought in the centuries prior to the French Revolution. From the late medieval period to the enlightenment, a significant number of European women wrote works dealing with themes of political significance. The essays in this collection examine their writings with particular reference to the ideas of virtue, liberty, and toleration. The figures discussed include Christine de Pizan, Catherine dAmboise, Isabella dEste, Elizabeth I, Katherine Chidley, Elizabeth Poole, Margaret Cavendish, Damaris Masham, Mary Astell, Elizabeth Carter, Catharine Macaulay, Mary Wollstonecraft, and CW. svdmay11 MENTIONED IN: - MMF transl.woman svdmay11
