This is a series for those interested in learning more about women writers, intellectuals and activists, women who deserve to be known better than they are. Episodes of the podcast were written and presented by students at the University of Toronto enrolled in a course devoted to the study of women writers in the history of political thought. The podcast is inspired in part by Christine de Pizan’s Book of the City of Ladies (1405).
