This article explores the translation and theoretical challenges involved in translating academic texts about Christine de Pizan (1364-1429), one of the first women to live from writing in medieval times, standing out as a critical voice in an intellectual context dominated by men. Developed in the project “As Cem Baladas de Christine de Pizan (1399) - Translation of Academic Articles” (PIBIC/UFBA-FAPESB, 2024-2025), our work analyzes the translation of two academic articles in which it is noted the use of different structures to mark the gender in French language. The study reinforces the relevance of Pizan as a precursor figure in the defense of women’s writing and the urgency of practices that recognize the role of translation in valuing female writing.
