Abstract

The Florentine writer Agnolo Firenzuola published Dialogo delle bellezze delle donne in the 16th century. This work is presented as an excellent model that allows us to analyze the popularization of the intellectual debates of the time lodged in literary dialogue, a classic genre in vogue among neoplatonists as a vehicle for sociocultural exchange revived during the Renaissance period. On the one hand, the article aims to analyze the characteristics that, according to the author, women must have in order to be considered beautiful (in the broadest sense of the term) and, on the other hand, the arguments that he uses in favor of gender equality giving rise to a very innovative discourse for its time.
