The Education of a Christian Woman by Juan Luis Vives
Vives advocated education for all women, regardless of social class and ability. From childhood through adolescence to marriage and widowhood, this manual offers advice as well as philosophical meditation. Vives stressed that women were intellectually equal if not superior to men.
Edward V. George (Ph.D., Wisconsin, 1966) is Professor Emeritus, Classics, Texas Tech University, and former President of the American Association for Neo-Latin Studies. He is editor of Vives's Sullan Declamations and Commentary on the Dream of Scipio and author of numerous articles on Vives.
