But instead, at sixteen, her father forced her into a Benedictine convent. To protest her confinement, Tarabotti composed polemical works exposing the many injustices perpetrated against women of her day. Paternal Tyranny, the first of these works, is a fiery but carefully argued manifesto against the oppression of women by the Venetian patriarchy. Denouncing key misogynist texts of the era, Tarabotti shows how despicable it was for Venice, a republic that prided itself on its political liberties, to deprive its women of rights accorded even to foreigners. She accuses parents of treating convents as dumping grounds for disabled, illegitimate, or otherwise unwanted daughters. Finally, through compelling feminist readings of the Bible and other religious works, Tarabotti demonstrates that women are clearly men's equals in God's eyes. An avenging angel who dared to speak out for the rights of women nearly four centuries ago, Arcangela Tarabotti can now finally be heard. 410 0$aOther voice in early modern Europe. 606 $aMonastic and religious life of women$zItaly$zVenice 606 $aWomen$zItaly$zVenice$xSocial conditions 606 $aPatriarchy$xReligious aspects$xCatholic Church 606 $aWomen$xReligious aspects$xCatholic Church 615 0$aMonastic and religious life of women 615 0$aWomen$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aPatriarchy$xReligious aspects$xCatholic Church. 615 0$aWomen$xReligious aspects$xCatholic Church. 676 $a305.42 700 $aTarabotti$b Arcangela$0223346 701 $aPanizza$b Letizia$0486928 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967588403321 996 $aPaternal tyranny$94367374 997 $aUNINA
