Synopsis
Our understanding of the lives and roles of medieval women has changed dramatically in recent years. Far from being background characters of the middle ages, women often wielded an influence beyond their expected station. Many women fortunate enough to receive an education became patrons of literature, particularly secular tales of adventure and romance. Some bold pioneers became writers themselves. Others commissioned, or had dedicated to them, the earliest historical chronicles, bestiaries, and treatises on healthcare and military prowess. Medieval Women celebrates the importance that women across Europe assigned to reading and literature, and the many ways women advanced medieval culture. It reveals the influence of great patrons like Eleanor of Castile, the English queen who employed two scribes and an illuminator in her personal workshop, and writers such as Hildegard of Bingen and Christine de Pizan, in addition to professional women who made their livings as scribes, artists, and librarians. In this compelling book, generously illustrated with images from the British Library's unparalleled medieval manuscript collection, Deirdre Jackson explores both how such literary women were perceived by others, from churchmen and artists to relatives and servants, and how they saw themselves--as wives, mothers, women of learning, women of God, and members of a vibrant and volatile society., Our understanding of the lives and roles of medieval women has changed dramatically in recent years. This compelling and richly illustrated book explores how they were perceived by others and how they saw themselves--as lovers, wives, mothers, intellectuals, women of God, and members of a vibrant and volatile society. Many of those fortunate enough to receive an education were patrons of literature, particularly secular tales of adventure and romance. Some, such as Marie de France and Christine de Pizan, became writers, forging a place for themselves in a field dominated by men. Others made a living as scribes and illuminators. Women were at the forefront of a literary revolution, creating and commissioning texts in the major languages spoken in Europe today. Medieval texts and images inform us about socially constructed roles for women, female sexuality, and codes of behavior, as well as how feet were shod, breasts concealed, waists laced, and hair fashioned. Medieval Women draws on the rich heritage of the British Library's manuscript collection to reveal the importance of women at every level of European society, from aristocratic patrons to tradeswomen and servants. The result is a powerful insight into the real lives of women in the medieval world., Our understanding of the lives and roles of medieval women has changed dramatically in recent years.

But it's still the go-to for detailed information about the composer, his life and his work. This particular volume (one) was well- shipped and in excellent condition - priced decently. And it arrived quickly. My thanks for a great transaction!
