le Livre de la Cité des Dames as Het Bouc van de Stede der Vrauwen (London, British Library, Add. 20698)
Christine de Pizan (1364-c.1430) composed ‘Le Livre de la Cité des Dames’ as a response to the misogynistic writings of the time. In 1475, Jan de Baenst, a descendant of a Bruges family, ordered a translation, 'Het Bouc van de Stede der Vrauwen'. This book tells the story of this codex by focusing on the background of the commissioner, the codicological aspects, the illumination program (41 miniatures), and the translator’s personal epilogue. With a summary in Dutch and French.
