The Genre of Medieval Patience Literature: Development, Duplication, and Gender - The New Middle Ages
R. Waugh
This book examines evolution of medieval patience literature from a focus on male and female sufferers to a focus on female suffers in particular. Using feminist revisions of genre-theory, Waugh analyses the concept of counterfeit consciousness in the works of Margery Kempe and Chaucer among others.
