Exploring queer themes within the French literary canon, this work examines notable texts such as Perceval and the Romance of the Rose, alongside lesser-known works like Yde and Olive, which features a cross-dressed heroine. The book integrates contemporary French theory, including insights from Kristeva and Barthes, with detailed readings of medieval literature. It also addresses significant recent contributions to pre-modern queer studies in the US, marking a pioneering effort in queer studies of medieval French literature.
