A multi-disciplinary re-evaluation of the role of women religious in the Middle Ages, both inside and outside the cloister.

Medieval women found diverse ways of expressing their religious aspirations: within the cloister as members of monastic and religious orders, within the world as vowesses, or between the two as anchorites. Via a range of disciplinary approaches, from history, archaeology, literature, and the visual arts, the essays in this volume challenge received scholarly narratives and re-examine the roles of women religious: their authority and agency within their own communities and the wider world; their learning and literacy; place in the landscape; and visual culture. Overall, they highlight the impact of women on the world around them, the significance of their presence in communities, and the experiences and legacies they left behind.

Arvustused

In conclusione, il volume curato da Curran e Burton riesce ad offrire un diorama di ricerche stimolanti, capaci di fornire nuove prospettive sul modo in cui le donne si ritagliarono il proprio spazio nella società medievale attraverso l'esperienza religiosa." (In conclusion, the volume edited by Curran and Burton successfully offers a panorama of stimulating research that provides new perspectives on how women carved out their own space in medieval society through religious experience.) * JOURNAL OF MADIAE AETATIS SODALICIUM * Medieval Women Religious makes a statement from its very title. The unexpected inversion of 'religious women' into a more empowering phrase is meant to be an uncomfortable prelude to a book that challenges readers to defy categories... Providing a state-of-the-art of the field, the editors justify their daring decision to avoid using 'nun' or 'nunnery' throughout the volume and to replace these terms instead with more collegial, agency-charged ones such as community or house. * JOURNAL OF MEDIEVAL MONASTIC STUDIES * Likely to be useful as background reading or an entryway into research projects... Medieval Women Religious c.800-c.1500: New Perspectives constantly reminds us that those it studies were real women with individual life experiences that often defy simple categorization. * STUDIES IN MEDIEVAL AND RENAISSANCE TEACHING (SMART) * Offers a refreshing contextualisation of how women lived under medieval monasticism. The volume succeeds in inserting women into the wider narrative of the religious institutions of medieval Europe by analysing how these women lived in their own right and not simply in comparison to their male counterparts. * CERÆ: AN AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN STUDIES *
