Observacions i context

- Elena Cornaro Piscopia was an esteemed member of various academies throughout Europe and received visits from scholars from all over the world. She liked to debate and lecture on theology and compose music. Even today, she is widely cited by scholars and writers.

- Although she mastered almost all branches of knowledge, at the University of Padua she taught mathematics to students from all over Europe.

- In her time, Italy was more advanced than the rest of Europe and there were already women studying science and mathematics at the University, but access to doctorates was still forbidden to them. When she was not allowed to study for a doctorate in Theology, since she ran into the intransigence of the Church that could not conceive of a woman teaching monks, she decided to prepare for a doctorate in Philosophy.

- Predecessors of Piscopia are Theano of Crotone (c. 546 - c. 450 BC) and Hypatia of Alexandria (c. 370 - c. 416 AD), who were also mathematicians and philosophers; Sophia Brahe (1555-1643), astronomer, horticulturist, alchemist, and genealogist.

- Her contemporaries were renowned astronomers, such as Elisabeth Hevelius (1647-1693); Jeanne Dumée (1660-1706); Margaret Flamsteed (1670-1730); Maria Margarethe Winckelmann Kirch (1670-1720) or Maria Clara Eimmart (1776-1707); and important scientists, such as Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717), naturalist, entomologist and scientific illustrator, and the mathematician Marie Crous.
