Hybridity, Identity, and Monstrosity in Medieval Britain : On Difficult Middles PDF
by J. Cohen
Part of the The New Middle Ages series
Description
This study examines the monsters that haunt twelfth-century British texts, arguing that in these strange bodies are expressed fears and fantasies about community, identity and race during the period.
Cohen finds the origins of these monsters in a contemporary obsession with blood, both the literal and metaphorical kind.
