Motherhood, Religion, and Society in Medieval Europe, 400-1400: Essays Presented to Henrietta Leyser - Church, Faith and Culture in the Medieval West
Lesley Smith
Focuses on the paradox of motherhood in the European Middle Ages. This book analyses the powers and the dangers of motherhood within the warp and weft of social history, beginning with the premise that religious discourse or practice served as a medium in which mothers (and others) could assess their situation, defend claims, and make accusations.
360 pages, includes 8 b&w illustrations
