They were not independent, active, virtuous individuals; rather, their lives became increasingly restricted. How could Castiglione’s writing support Kelly’s argument? In your first paragraph, explain how the Renaissance man made greater strides than the Renaissance woman by citing "The Courtier". Then articulate how Fonte reacted to women’s subordination by citing from her writing. Your analysis should be two paragraphs

First, think back to my discussion of the social construction of reality and, specifically, my discussion of how we “know” about things we don’t have direct experience with in life. Talk me through an example of that from your own life. You could discuss something you’ve not experienced directly and only “know” about because someone told you about it. Or you could discuss a situation where at one point you only “knew” what others have told you about something but then experienced it—how did that experience change what you “knew”? Finally, why do you think I keep putting “know” and “knew” inside quotation marks?
