Abstract
Dans cet article, nous présentons l’analyse argumentative de l’oeuvre "Della Eccellenza e dignità della
donna" (1525), l’un des traités les moins étudiés de la Querelle des femmes. Son auteur, instruit
à la cour du Duché de Milan, se démarqua parmi les humanistes les plus notables de son temps
grâce à son poste de secrétaire de Francesco II Sforza. Galeazzo Flavio Capra rédigea l’oeuvre en
prose vernaculaire, réélaborant des modèles classiques et réinterprétant Pétrarque, Boccace, ainsi
que d’autres écrivains contemporains. Cette étude vise à montrer l’originalité de cette oeuvre qui sut
avancer des arguments qui seront utilisés postérieurement par d’autres auteurs en faveur des femmes.
Ces arguments vont défier la tradition et des valeurs littéraires et culturelles de l’époque.
In this article, we present an argumentative analysis of Galeazzo Flavio Capra’s "Della Eccelenza e dignità della donna" (1525), one of the least studied Renaissance treatises of the “Querelle des Femmes”. The author, who was educated at the court of the Duchy of Milan, distinguished himself among the notable humanists of his time thanks to his position as secretary to Francesco II Sforza. Capra wrote his text in vernacular prose, reworking classical models and proposing a reinterpretation of Petrarch, Boccacio, and other contemporary writers. This study aims to show the originality of Capra’s work in the face of traditional cultural and literary values which he managed to turn in favour of sixteenth-century women.
