Early feminist or pro-woman works often combine the claim that the rational souls of men and women are the same with an argument for the superiority of women. This article considers two such works, Lucrezia Marinella's The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men (Venice, 1601 [1999]) and Marguerite Buffet's In Praise of Illustrious Learned Women, both Ancient and Modern (Paris, 1668), in order to show the continuities and distinctive features of feminist arguments for superiority, to emphasize the differences in the conceptions of reason and physiology that distinguish them, and to demonstrate that claims of superiority persisted even as those defending women's worth began to adopt egalitarian positions.

十七世纪女性的优越感

早期的女权主义或支持女性的作品经常将男女理性灵魂相同的主张与女性优越的论点结合起来。本文考虑了两部这样的作品,Lucrezia Marinella 的《女性的高贵和卓越》以及男性的缺陷和恶习(威尼斯,1601 [1999])和玛格丽特·巴菲特(Marguerite Buffet)的《赞美古代和现代的杰出女性》(巴黎,1668 年),为了展示女权主义主张优越性的连续性和独特性,强调区分它们的理性和生理概念的差异,并证明即使那些捍卫女性价值的人开始采取平等主义立场,优越性的主张仍然存在。
