Meri Heinonen,MA, Department of History, University of Turku, Finland
I am a post-graduate student with a special interest in medieval
masculinities and feminities. At the moment I am starting my research
about some medieval mystics and their use of gender-related symbols.
I am aware that the subject (women and their symbols and their ideas about
their sex and gender) has been studied quite a lot especially in the
United States. After all I feel their is still some space for a study
about both men and women and their use of symbols and metaphors. I would
be more than happy to hear if any of the list-members is a specialist in
this kind of issues.
