Know about the book -

Christine de Pizan in Bruges. The Flemish Codex of Le Livre de la Cité Des Dames (London, British Library, MS Add. 20698). is written by Orlanda Soei Han Lie and published by Uitgeverij Verloren. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 9087045395 (ISBN 10) and 9789087045395 (ISBN 13).

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.
