Medieval Women Writers

This course explores the rich world of writing by women in the Middle Ages from the point of view of current theoretical perspectives. Writers include Marie de France, Christine de Pizan, Jah?n-Malek K?tun, Hildegard of Bingen, Margery Kempe, Julian of Norwich, and others. We will discuss themes including love and desire in women?s writing; representations of women in medieval literature and philosophy; gendered representations of sanctity; and critical approaches derived from feminist theory. No prior knowledge of medieval literature is assumed or required.
