Wow, great to wake up this morning & find someone reengaging w/ this 2025 🧵 on CdP (Christine de Pizan). Sharing it again for folks looking for some medieval Sunday reading. #MedievalSky

First, who was CdP? Christine was the daughter of a physician & astrologer, Tommaso de Pizzano, from a well-established family in Bologna. She seems to have been born in Venice ca. 1364. Her father took a position as court astrologer in Paris and CdP lived the rest of her life in France.
