The Generation of Identity in Late Medieval Hagiography : Speaking the Saint PDF
by Gail Ashton, Gail Ashton Nfa
Part of the Routledge Research in Medieval Studies series
Description
In this interdisciplinary and boundary-breaking study, Gail Ashton examines the portrayals of women saints in a wide range of medieval texts.
She deploys the French feminist critical theory of Cixous and Iriguray to illuminate these depictions of women by men and to further our understanding of both the lives and deeds of female saints and the contemporary, and almost always male, attitudes to them.
