Women Pilgrims in Late Medieval England de Susan S. Morrison

Women Pilgrims in Late Medieval England: Routledge Research in Medieval Studies

Autor Susan S. Morrison
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 iul 2000
This thought-provoking book explores medieval perceptions of pilgrimage, gender and space. It examines real life evidence for the widespread presence of women pilgrims, as well as secular and literary texts concerning pilgrimage and women pilgrims represented in the visual arts. Women pilgrims were inextricably linked with sexuality and their presence on the pilgrimage trails was viewed as tainting sacred space.
