Christine de Pizan Lizzie Gelderman and Dani Brown

Fight, Pray, Work To what extent can Christine de Pizan be seen as a member of both the in and out groups within a Fight, Pray, Work model, as seen through both her life and works?... ?

Background Born in 1364 in Venice, Italy Her father, Tommaso da Pizzano, was physician at Charles V's court At the age of 15, married to Etienne of Castel Around 1387, her father died, three years later, her husband died She had no money or property She used writing to support herself

Work Problems with Law o Nobody is above the law Involvement in Political Thinking o 4 Principles of Justice (chivalry) Cité des Dames (City of Ladies) o Virgin Mary as "defender, protector and guard"

Fight Concerned about what was being done in God's name Just War (Auctorias) o Causes (justifiable/non-justifyable) Chivalry o Masculine o Knights as it's vessel

Pray Christine grew up in an intellectual environment Her work draws on both famous church members and classic literature o Ovid, Boethius, St. Augustine, St. Gregory L'Epistre d'Othea á Hector (Othea's Letter to Hector) o texte, glose, & allegorie

Paradoxes- in and out Work Little known, yet very skilled  Prolific; Italian living in French court Pray Virgin Mary  "Mater Dolorosa" vs. "defender, protector and guard" Fight cornerstone of war literature, yet never saw combat

Conclusion NOT a feminist! And yet, influential in gender studies due to her prolific and unapologetic nature Work, Pray, Fight is an effective model when both in and out groups are considered.
