Largely neglected for seven hundred years, Le Bestiaire d'amour and Response address issues that are universally relevant: male and female expectations in love, sexual dominance, sexual exploitation, and female strategies for self-preservation in a society where women were powerless and vulnerable."--Jacket 330 1 $a"The first gendered prose debate in a European vernacular, Le Bestiaire d'amour and the subsequent Response constitute a clash of opposites: a medieval chancellor's erotic bestiary to a woman is countered by the woman's passionate protest against the cleric's misogynistic presuppositions. Jeanette Beer presents a close, linear reading of the two literary texts, examining the context that led to the love-bestiary's production in the thirteenth century (especially an influential version of the Physiologus by Pierre de Beauvais), the suggestiveness of the animal symbolism, and the aftermath of the debate." 606 $aCourtly love in literature 607 $aEuropa$2gnd 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCourtly love in literature. 676 $a844/.1 700 $aBeer$b Jeanette M.
