Excerpt from La Femme Italienne à l'Époque de la Renaissance: Sa Vie Privée Et Mondaine, Son Influence Sociale A l'époque de la Renaissance, les femmes italiennes furent, sans contredit, le centre de la vie intellectuelle. On ne voulut avoir de l'esprit, montrer de la science que pour elles, devant elles, a leur guise. Dans la vie de parade qu 'on menait presque exclusivement, dans ces réunions, dans ces causeries ou hommes de lettres et hommes de guerre, prélats, princes et artistes passaient le meilleur de leur temps, la femme jouait le personnage principal; elle donnait le ton. Les charmantes cours d'isabelle d 'este, de jeanne d'aragon, de la reine de Chypre, de Ferrare, de Florence et d'urbin étaient des bureaux d'esprit, d'un esprit précieux sans doute et assez superficiel mais subtil, brillant et parfois suffisamment avisé.
