Parallel Lives: Christine de Pizan & Beatriz Galindo (Dr. Emma & Me)

In this episode of Parallel Lives, Dr. Emma and Rebecca explore the lives of two remarkable women who turned learning into influence.Christine de Pizan became one of Europe’s first professional female writers, using her words to challenge the misogyny of her age and defend women’s intelligence. Meanwhile in Spain, Beatriz Galindo—known as La Latina—rose as a celebrated humanist at the court of Queen Isabella I, proving that education could be power.Along the way, we dive into a fascinating portrait mystery—one that may be Elizabeth I rather than the sitter we’ve long been told it could be—and we also revisit a major Tudor assumption: was Kateryn Parr truly the first published Tudor queen consort… or is that title more complicated than we think?CHECK OUT OUR MERCH! https://tudors-dynasty-podcast-merch.creator-spring.com/listing/historical-nicknames-teeJOIN THE UPCOMING COURSE - Medieval True Crime with Matt Lewis: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1978296660566?aff=oddtdtcreator.
