For Fonte and Tarabotti, however, that God created the woman after the man does not indicate her inferiority but rather her superiority.55 As a seed is inferior to the thing which emerges from it, Fonte comments, so man is more lowly than woman who was created from his body.56 In making her last, God singled out the woman for honor, Tarabotti argues, she being “the compendium of all perfections.”57 Thus, while God infused all his creation with his power, wisdom, and love, he set apart the woman as the final and finishing touch, it being God’s will “that all those catching sight of her should marvel.”
