Timeline
Willard was awarded the title of a Chevalier de l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques in the early 1980's (date is disputed), an award from the French government which acknowledged her contributions to the studies of Christine de Pizan. In 1988, she was awarded the Distinguished Alumni Award from Hiram College, and was recognized with an L.H.D. from Saint Mary College in 1993. In 1998, Willard received a Smith College medal as a distinguished alumna.
Willard graduated from Hiram College in 1934 with a Bachelor of Arts, going on to receive her Masters of Arts in French from Smith College in 1936, and attained a PhD in Romance Philology at Radcliffe College in 1940. Willard's first published work on Pizan was from her PhD dissertation, and was published in 1958. Her husband, Sumner Willard, was an officer and professor of foreign languages at the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY; officer's wives were not allowed to work full-time outside of the home. As a result, she declined a position as a professor at Brown University, instead filling in for professor's leaves of absences and travelling Europe in search of manuscripts of Christine de Pizan. She eventually accepted a full-time position as a French and Spanish professor at LadyCliff College (1961–1979), becoming the first West Point colonel wife to have a full-time professional career. After her retirement in 1979, Willard began to focus on her studies of Pizan, and was the author and editor of many works concerning Pizan.
Charity's husband, Sumner Willard (1916–1995), was a 7th great-grandson (10th generation descendant) of the Massachusetts colonist, Simon Willard (1605–1676).
Charity Cannon Willard (August 9, 1914 – June 5, 2005), an American scholar, is best known for drawing attention to the 15th-century poet and author Christine de Pizan in the English-speaking world. Willard translated and wrote critical editions of Pizan's work, and "is widely regarded as the world's preeminent scholar" on Christine de Pizan. Honoured with several academic awards, she is regarded by scholars as a trailblazer in the study of Pizan.
