English: The w:Power of Women is a topos in medieval and Renaissance literature and art, defined by Susan Smith as "the representational practice of bringing together at least two, but usually more, well-known figures from the Bible, ancient history, or romance to exemplify a cluster of interrelated themes that include:

the wiles of women,
the power of love, and
the trials of marriage".
