It addresses questions of gender in a sustained and systematic manner that is sensitive to cultural and historical differences in both raw material and fictional reworking. It draws on theories of biofiction and historical fiction, life-writing studies, feminist criticism, queer feminist readings, postcolonial studies, feminist art history, and trans studies. Attentive to various approaches to fictionalisation that reclaim, appropriate or re-invent their ?raw material?, the volume assesses the critical, revisionist and deconstructive potential of biographical fictions while acknowledging the effects of cliché, gender norms and established narratives in many of the texts under investigation.

Concluding Observations /$rSteckel, Sita --$tBibliography --$tIndex 330 $aThe history of medieval learning has traditionally been studied as a vertical transmission of knowledge from a master to one or several disciples. *Horizontal Learning in the High Middle Ages: Peer-to-Peer Knowledge Transfer in Religious Communities* centres on the ways in which cohabiting peers learned and taught one another in a dialectical process - how they acquired knowledge and skills, but also how they developed concepts, beliefs, and adapted their behaviour to suit the group: everything that could mold a person into an efficient member of the community. This process of 'horizontal learning' emerges as an important aspect of the medieval learning experience. Progressing beyond the view that high medieval religious communities were closed, homogeneous, and fairly stable social groups, the essays in this volume understand communities as the product of a continuous process of education and integration of new members. The authors explore how group members learned from one another, and what this teaches us about learning within the context of a high medieval community. 410 0$aKnowledge communities (Amsterdam, Netherlands) ;$v7. 606 $aLearning and scholarship$zEurope$xHistory$yMedieval, 500-1500 606 $aEducation, Medieval 615 0$aLearning and scholarship$xHistory 615 0$aEducation, Medieval. 676 $a370.902 700 $aLong$b Micol$4edt$0620713 702 $aVanderputten$b Steven 702 $aSnijders$b Tjamke$f1981- 702 $aLong$b Micol 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910359555803321 996 $aHorizontal Learning in the High Middle Ages$93558804 997 $aUNINA
