Throughout history, some
books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see
ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and
revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted.
They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you
the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries
whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
Pioneering female writer Christine de Pizan's spirited defence of her
sex against medieval misogyny and literary stereotypes is now
recognized as one of the most important books in the history of
feminism, and offers a telling insight into the role of women in a
man's world.
