From Virile Woman to Womanchrist Barbara Newman

From Virile Woman to WomanChrist Studies in Medieval Religion and Literature Barbara Newman "Barbara Newman has written the most wide-ranging and throughly researched study to date of women"s religious literature of the Middle Ages. Ranging across time . . . regional and linguistic borders . . . and genres, Newman provides enough examples to sink an armada of skeptics who would dismiss medieval female piety as somehow unrepresentative of high medieval culture. The range of examples is itself dazzling, and students of religious and feminist history will treasure this book. . . . But to prodigious learning and careful scholarship Newman adds . . . a writer"s gift for being both clear and engaging. . . . From Virile Woman to WomanChrist is not only good scholarship but a good read."--Studies in the Age of Chaucer The Middle Ages Series 1995 | 424 pages | 6 x 9 | 8 illus.
