AP European History
Unit 1 – Renaissance and Exploration
Topic 1.4
From a feminist perspective, how did the advent of printing affect women's roles in society during Renaissance Europe?
Print media was largely neutral, neither reinforcing nor challenging existing gender norms during this period.
The advent of printing reinforced traditional female roles as most printed works reflected and promoted male dominance and women's subordination.
Printing technology empowered women by providing them with a platform to share their experiences and challenge patriarchy.
It brought about a radical transformation in gender dynamics by promoting female authors and perspectives.
