Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This text explores the role of the lady within medieval society, describing what she actually did rather than the romantic ideal. It covers the English lady in the 11th and 12th centuries; the widening of gentility in England in the succeeding centuries; social relations between the sexes, including incidences of rape and murder; plus a chapter examining the lady in contemporary literature. The text is complemented by a selection of contemporary illustrations from manuscripts and documents, as well as photographs of medieval effigies and other artefacts.
