Common Women: Prostitution and Sexuality in Medieval England - Studies in the History of Sexuality
Karras, Ruth Mazo (Associate Professor of History, Associate Professor of History, Temple University)
A "Common Woman" in medieval England was a prostitute, distinguished as such less for taking money for sex than for belonging to all men in common. Karras's book tells the story of these women, their experiences, relations, and treatment under the law, and concludes that prostitution was central to the medieval understanding of feminity.
