In the medieval period conduct literature was essential reading for nearly all literate children and adolescents to educate them in the expected social behaviours for their culture, gender, and status. Using a comparative approach, this anthology pairs together pieces of male-directed and female-directed medieval conduct literature, many being translated into English for the first time, to present an illuminating picture of medieval gender norms, parenting, literary style, and pedagogy. Containing texts written in six vernacular languages, each section is also accompanied by textual notes, an introduction, and an English translation. A fascinating examination of a diverse range of regions and cultures, Medieval Conduct Literature is a remarkable window into medieval life, customs, behaviour, and social expectations.Medieval Academy books ;Number 111.Literature, MedievalConduct of life in literatureCivilization, MedievalEuropaswdLiterature, Medieval.Conduct of life in literature.Civilization, Medieval.808.8/03530902Johnston Mark D.Krueger Roberta L.Ashley Kathleen M.1944-Medieval Academy of America.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791666503321Medieval conduct literature3744488UNINA
