Female Humanists in Renaissance Italy

Like many young girls in the Italian Renaissance, the Italian Renaissance female humanist, Alcan Gelatara Botti, was unable to pay enough dowry to buy her daughter's marriage. In order to protect their honor and virginity, they sent Taraboti to the monaster contrary to her wishes. Here, she lives as a nun in an unhappy life. To distinguish her from other girls in a similar situation is that she became one of the few female humanist writers. The story of Talaboti and other female humanists as discussed in this chapter not only shows women's oppression in the Renaissance society but also shows how women find ways to solve their environment.

The Renaissance was inversely related to humanitarianists and other secular religious beliefs in the Middle Ages. It started in Italy in the late 14th century and is called Il Rinascimento in Italy. Our English word renaissance comes from French. The French Renaissance flowered under King François (1515-1547). Under his rule, many magnificent Loire Castles, and the Louvre museum and the Royal Palace in Paris were decorated and renovated to reflect the Renaissance style. French renaissance artists such as members of Fontainebleau school flourished

The Renaissance has often been seen as secular and infidel movement, in many ways as anti Christians. In Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance, this is a fact, but the humanist here is particularly secular and has little interest in the church. An early Italian humanist like Petrarch sought to reform the church, but his successor was largely secular in terms of prospects and concerns. Many humanitarians are interested in reforming the church, but mainly churches and religions are not the main focus of Italian humanitarianists. However, there are many Renaissance, sports have various forms in various countries.

Ironically, we rarely teach the humanist of the Italian Renaissance. The reason is that the concept of "classical Latin" is considered to be the main cause. Especially from Petrarch, humanitarians believe that the best Latin is considered Latin in ancient Rome. It is clear that the "classical" period of a language should be the mother tongue, not the Sanskrit word and placket. In addition to the concept of 'classical Latin', classical Latin rules and norms were reconstructed by the work of the 15th century humanist. What we owe to them are not only classical Latin-like things but also detailed linguistic knowledge brought about by Latin.
