Abstract
Abstract:In this paper I explore the contribution of the medieval French writer Christine de Pizan (1365–c. 1431) to Ovidian reception studies in her early illustrated work, Epistle of Othéa (1399–1400). Along with the Ovide Moralisé, the Othéa stands at the start of a rich visual tradition of Ovidian illustration. Christine's written and pictorial response to the narrative of Diana and Actaeon demonstrates how Ovidian myth provided her with a powerful aesthetic and cultural discourse that evaded the phallocentric, exclusive domain of the male writer and validated the co-emergence of genders and identities.
摘要:本文探讨了中世纪法国作家克里斯汀·德·皮桑(Christine de Pizan, 1365-c)的贡献。1431)到奥维德的接受研究,在她早期的插图作品,奥斯海姆的书信(1399-1400)。和奥维德的道德画像一样,奥维德的《奥斯海姆》是奥维德插画丰富的视觉传统的开端。克里斯汀对黛安娜和阿克托翁的叙述的书面和图像回应表明奥维德神话如何为她提供了强大的美学和文化话语,避开了男性作家的生殖器中心,专属领域,并证实了性别和身份的共同出现。
