Jacob Burckhardt’s view that Renaissance European women “stood on a footing of perfect equality” with Renaissance men has been repeatedly cited by feminist scholars as a prelude to their presentation of rich historical evidence of women’s inequality. In striking contrast to Burckhardt, Joan Kelly in her famous 1977 essay, “Did Women Have a Renaissance?” argued that the Renaissance was a period of economic and social decline for women relative both to Renaissance men and to medieval women. Recently, however, a significant trend among feminist scholars has entailed a rejection of both Kelly’s dark vision of the Renaissance and Burckhardt’s rosy one. Many recent works by these scholars stress the ways in which differences among Renaissance women—especially in terms of social status and religion—work to complicate the kinds of generalizations both Burckhardt and Kelly made on the basis of their observations about upper-class Italian women.

The trend is also evident, however, in works focusing on those middle- and upper-class European women whose ability to write gives them disproportionate representation in the historical record. Such women were, simply by virtue of their literacy, members of a tiny minority of the population, so it is risky to take their descriptions of their experiences as typical of “female experience” in any general sense. Tina Krontiris, for example, in her fascinating study of six Renaissance women writers, does tend at times to conflate “women” and “women writers,” assuming that women’s gender, irrespective of other social differences, including literacy, allows us to view women as a homogeneous social group and make that group an object of analysis. Nonetheless, Krontiris makes a significant contribution to the field and is representative of those authors who offer what might be called a cautiously optimistic assessment of Renaissance women’s achievements, although she also stresses the social obstacles Renaissance women faced when they sought to raise their “oppositional voices.” Krontiris is concerned to show women intentionally negotiating some power for themselves (at least in the realm of public discourse) against potentially constraining ideologies, but in her sober and thoughtful concluding remarks, she suggests that such verbal opposition to cultural stereotypes was highly circumscribed; women seldom attacked the basic assumptions in the ideologies that oppressed them.

The author of the passage discusses Krontiris primarily to provide an example of a writer who

is highly critical of the writings of certain Renaissance women supports Kelly’s view of women’s status during the Renaissance has misinterpreted the works of certain Renaissance women has rejected the views of both Burckhardt and Kelly has studied Renaissance women in a wide variety of social and religious contexts

文章大意逻辑
文章开篇提到雅各布·布克哈特认为文艺复兴时期欧洲女性与男性地位平等，这一观点常被女权主义学者引用作为阐述女性不平等历史证据的前奏。琼·凯利则持相反观点，认为文艺复兴时期女性相对男性和中世纪女性，经济和社会地位下降。近来许多女权主义学者的作品既拒绝了凯利的悲观看法，也拒绝了布克哈特的乐观看法，强调文艺复兴时期女性间的差异，使布克哈特和凯利基于上层意大利女性观察所做的概括变得复杂。接着指出关注能写作的中上层欧洲女性的作品也存在趋势，以蒂娜·克龙特里丝研究六位文艺复兴女性作家为例，她有时会混淆“女性”和“女性作家”，但她仍对该领域有重要贡献，是持谨慎乐观态度的作者代表。 文章类型及逻辑简图
文章类型：新旧观点对比 逻辑简图： Burckhardt's view: Renaissance women = Renaissance men (equality) cited by feminist scholars Kelly's view: Renaissance was a decline for women opposite to Burckhardt Recent trend among feminist scholars: reject both Kelly's and Burckhardt's views Focus on middle and upper class European women writers: Krontris as an example sometimes conflate "women" and "women writers", but makes contribution 做题方法及问题类型
这是一道细节目的题，通过定位文中“Tina Krontris, for example”相关内容来判断作者讨论克龙特里丝的主要目的。 选项分析
A选项：文中未提及克龙特里丝高度批判某些文艺复兴女性的作品，属于无中生有，排除。 B选项：她并非支持凯利对文艺复兴时期女性地位的观点，与原文不符，排除。 C选项：文中没有说她误解了某些文艺复兴女性的作品，排除。 D选项：根据文中内容，近来许多学者拒绝布克哈特和凯利的观点，克龙特里丝作为例子，符合这一趋势，该选项正确。 E选项：文中只说她研究六位文艺复兴女性作家，未提及广泛的社会和宗教背景，排除。
