Sex roles were clearly defined in the medieval world although there were exceptions to the rules, and this book examines both the commonplace world view and the exceptions to it. The volume looks not only at the social and economic considerations of gender but also the religious and legal implications, arguing that both ecclesiastical and secular laws governed behaviour. The book covers key topics, including femininity and masculinity and how medieval society constructed these terms; sexuality and sex; transgressive sexualities such as homosexuality, adultery and chastity; and the gendered body of Christ, including the idea of Jesus as mother and affective spirituality. Using a clear chapter structure for easy navigation and categorisation, as well as a glossary of terms, the book will be a vital resource for students of medieval history. 606 $aSex role$zEngland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aSex role$zEurope$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aWomen$zEngland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aWomen$zEurope$xHistory$yMiddle Ages, 500-1500 606 $2Medieval history 615 0$aSex role$xHistory 615 0$aSex role$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xHistory 676 $a305.40942/01 700 $aSauer$b Michelle M.$f1972-$01653312 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810216003321 996 $aGender in medieval culture$94004566 997 $aUNINA
