The Treasure of the City of Ladies
''The Treasure of the City of Ladies'' (''Le trésor de la cité des dames'', also known ''The Book of the Three Virtues'') is a manual of education by medieval Italian-French author Christine de Pisan. Finished, like her previous ''Book of the City of Ladies'', by the year 1405, and dedicated to Margaret of Burgundy at a time when Christine was writing works for Margaret's father Duke John the Fearless of Burgundy, the book aims to educate women of all estates with advice on various topics. Her ''Book'' and ''Treasure'' are two of her best-known works, mainly due to the study of these books in modern academia.
==Genesis and description==
In the ''Book of the City of Ladies'' Christine had given a passionate and well-organized defense of women by arguing (in many different ways and methods) for the value and worth of women, refuting the view of authors such as Jean de Meun and citing famous examples of notable and virtuous women. In the subsequent ''Treasure'' she claimed that after finishing the ''Book'' all she wanted to do was rest; however, harassed and accused of indolence by the three ladies of Virtue (Reason, Rectitude, and Justice) who had helped her with the ''Book'', she agreed to continue with a sequel. The earliest surviving miniature for the book, supervised by Christine de Pizan and made by the same master who illustrated the ''Book'', shows Christine attempting to rest, in bed, but with the Three Virtues standing to her left and pulling her out of bed by the arm.〔 In the ''Treasure'', she offered the lessons imparted from those feminine avatars to women of all estates, including such categories as nuns, prostitutes, married and unmarried women.
