Carter, Ed.D. Assistant Professor and Adult Learning Program Coordinator, Teaching and Learning Department School of Education Virginia Commonwealth University Richmond, Virginia April, 2011 ii Acknowledgment It may take a village to raise a child; however, it takes a great dissertation committee, a supportive family, and good friends to help a doctoral candidate earn a Ph.D. With their expertise and direction, my dissertation committee has assisted me in taking a nebulous idea and some ill-formed research questions and producing a dissertation of which I am proud. To Dr. Mary Hermann, Dr. Teresa Carter, Dr. Maike Philipsen, and Dr. Juliette Landphair, I am eternally grateful for your guidance, understanding, and patience. You will always be some of the most important women in my life. This dissertation involved a significant amount of legal research and interpretation, which was provided by Chivonne Thomas, Esquire. During her law school days at the University of Richmond, Chivonne helped me understand the legal terminology, the case precedents, and workings of our state‘s legal system. Without her assistance, I would have not been able to grasp the legal aspects of this dissertation. I read this dissertation so many times that I lost my ability to review it for readability and correctness. My ―inheritable‖ daughter, Angela Brooke White, served as my copy editor and proofreader while also pursuing her Ph.D. at the University of Colorado. Her editorial comments, although sometimes tough, helped me produce a better dissertation. iii Throughout the writing of this dissertation, I have sought information from research librarians at a number of colleges and universities. I have never encountered a group of professionals who were more friendly and helpful. To the research librarians at Virginia Commonwealth University, University of Richmond, University of Virginia, and Mount Holyoke College, thank you very much. I extend a special thanks to the graduates of PWC who participated in this study. You have given me your time and honest answers to my interview questions. You made my dissertation research interesting and fun. My only regret is that I cannot use your real names because you are a remarkable group of women who have my respect and admiration. Without my family and friends, I could have not accomplished the lifetime goal of earning my Ph.D. My friends have given me words of encouragement or sent me inspirational or hilarious emails to keep me motivated. My dear friends Becky and John Thomas have prepared gourmet meals for me when I would have eaten a can of dog food had someone placed it, along with a fork, in front of me. The person most important to me throughout this process has been my husband, John Clarke. He has been my research assistant, proofreader, and primary cheerleader. He has paid my tuition, booked and paid for all my travel arrangements, and not once has he complained. He told me I was smart and the best doctoral candidate when I questioned my ability to proceed. I love him forever for everything he has done to help me achieve one of the most important goals of my life. To Austin and Baylee Grandstaff, you may now call me Dr. Dork. iv Table of Contents Page LIST OF TABLES ......................................................................................................... vii ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................. viii 1.

  • První Filozofka S Doktorátem: Elena Lucrezia Cornarová Piscopiová
    Pro-Fil 18 (1) 2017: 2–20 https://doi.org/10.5817/pf17-1-1599 PRVNÍ FILOZOFKA S DOKTORÁTEM: ELENA LUCREZIA CORNAROVÁ PISCOPIOVÁ ZDEŇKA KALNICKÁ Katedra filozofie FF OU, Ostrava, Česká republika, [email protected] JURAJ KALNICKÝ Ústav pedagogických a psychologických věd, Slezská univerzita, Opava, Česká republika, [email protected] PŮVODNÍ VĚDECKÁ PRÁCE ▪ OBDRŽENO: 8. 4. 2014 ▪ PŘIJATO: 13. 6. 2017 Abstrakt: Studie analyzuje podmínky a specifika, které vedly k tomu, že v roce 1678 získala na Univerzitě v Padově jako první žena na světě doktorát z filozofie Elena Lucrezia Cornarová. Autoři zpřítomňují širší dobový kontext této výjimečné události. Upozorňují na to, že i navzdory skutečnosti, že univerzity neumožňovaly řádné studium ženám, se Eleně Cornarové získat doktorát podařilo, a to díky souběhu několika okolností, které vytvořily příznivé podmínky pro jeho udělení. Z nich autoři vyzdvihují zejména tradici intelektuálních center na renesančních dvorech na území dnešní Itálie, vedených vzdělanými aristokratkami; rozvoj Benátské republiky v 16. a 17. století, který ovlivnil i postavení žen, zejména z aristokratických rodin; otevřený přístup univerzit, zejména Univerzity v Padově a v Bologni, ke studiu žen. Hlavní pozornost je věnována rodinnému prostředí, životním osudům a studiu Eleny Cornarové. Na závěr jsou zmíněny další filozofky a vědkyně 17. a 18. století. Klíčová slova: Benátská republika, doktorát z filozofie, Elena Lucrezia Cornarová, Laura Bassiová, Maria Gaetana Agnesiová, Univerzita v Padově, Univerzita v Bologni Abstract: The paper analyzes the specific conditions leading to the fact that Elena Lucrezia Cornaro received the doctoral degree in philosophy in 1678 as the first woman in the world. The authors map the broader social and intellectual context of this extraordinary event.

  • Thought. in His Summa the Good Archbishop in Fact Relied Point by Point on the Venetian Writer, Henry of Rimini, Whose Liber De
    162 book reviews thought. In his Summa the good archbishop in fact relied point by point on the Venetian writer, Henry of Rimini, whose Liber de quattuor virtutibus cardinali- bus ad cives Venetos (ca. 1300) he duly cited—although prior to Howard no one bothered to check the citation. So much for modern scholarship’s compulsive search for originality—a search that often obscures what is historically impor- tant in a text. The Antoninus that emerges in Howard’s study is appreciated not as a sparkling theoretician but as a responsive and engaged preacher and a theologian who drew upon the rich and diverse theological tradition in which he had been schooled with style and care. One understands why the Florentines liked him. william j. connell, Seton Hall University Maschietto, Francesco Ludovico. Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia (1646–1684): The First Woman in the World to Earn a University Degree. Trans. Jan Vairo and William Crochetiere. Ed. Catherine Marshall. Philadelphia: Saint Joseph’s University Press, 2007. Pp. xxii, 318. ISBN 978-0- 9161-0157-2 (hardcover) $40. Francesco Ludovico Maschietto’s book makes a worthy contribution to an ex- panding genre of literature concerned with women’s biographies in the early modern period. Exquisitely researched, and intended primarily for the aca- demic community, it successfully finds ways to communicate its content to the broader public interested in early modern learning. Although Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia was the subject of previous scholarly research, this was the first extensive study in Italian—here translated into English—that focuses exclusively on her life. This volume has the merit of unearthing a number of unpublished documents on Elena and of giving an overview of the seventeenth- century Venetian social, cultural, and educational milieu.
