Cultures of Charity: Women, Politics, and the Reform of Poor Relief in Renaissance Italy - I Tatti Studies in Italian Renaissance History
Nicholas Terpstra
Renaissance debates about politics and gender led to pioneering forms of poor relief, devised to help women get a start in life. These included orphanages for illegitimate children and forced labor in workhouses, but also women’s shelters and early forms of maternity benefits, unemployment insurance, food stamps, and credit union savings plans.
