Ženska pismenost u srednjem vijeku

Pismenost žena tijekom srednjeg vijeka bila je iznenađujuće visoka. Redovnice su bile pisci i pisari. Mnoge su druge žene poticale na čitanje i učenje, osobito plemićke žene. Jedan od primjera bila je Christine de Pizan, pjesnikinja na dvoru francuskog kralja Charlesa VI.
