Gender in the Early Medieval World: East and West, 300-900Leslie Brubaker, Julia M. H. Smith Cambridge University Press, 11. 11. 2004 - Počet stran: 333 This book uses gender analysis to study power and culture between c. 300 and 900. It examines the women, men and eunuchs who lived in the late Roman, Byzantine, Islamic and western European civilisations, and assesses the ways in which gender identity was established and manifested in written and material cultural forms. In charting the shifting gender order of these centuries, it emphasises the integral relationship between the masculine and feminine by exploring costume, attitudes to the body, social and political institutions and a wide range of literary genres. |
