Question

Did the working women get an education for the first time in the Renaissance?

Answer 1

Long before that. Even in Roman times, some women were highly educated.

Answer 2

They were able to study in Library's but only if someone was nice enough to teach them to read....mostly only the rich women were educated and they could really only read

Answer 3

the humanist scholar leonardo bruni created an educational program for women, but left out of his curriculum the study of rhetoric or public speech, critical parts of the male education, since women had no outlet to make use of these skills.

Answer 4

Working class women did not become educated until the beginning of the Edwardian Period or later. They didn't have the money or time to attend school or hire private tutors. Only wealthy women had the financial means to become educated and often were not then. A formal education was considered unnecessary for a lady of quality. Although in June 25, 1678, Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia became the first woman graduate in history when she was awarded a degree in Philosophy by the University of Padua in Italy.
