Relate the Castiglione's description of the behavior of women to Cereta's view on the pursuit of learning for women

What will be an ideal response?


Cereta acknowledges that there are some women who willingly choose to follow Castiglione's advice to cater to the expectations of men. While Castiglione recommends "knowledge" of a variety of subjects, it is clear that this knowledge is to be used only for the entertainment of men. Cereta, on the other hand, speaks of a "deeper integrity" in women which drives them towards a free mind.
