medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Thanks for the plug, George: if anyone wants to know more
about the collection, I'd be happy to supply details.
Meanwhile, more titles on hagiography & gender - not an
exhaustive list by any means, though I'd be interested to
see what anyone else has to add:
Ashton, Gail. The Generation of Identity in Late Medieval
Hagiography: Speaking the Saint. Routledge: London and New
York, 2000.
Sanctity and Motherhood: Essays on Holy Mothers in the
Middle Ages, edited by Anneke B. Mulder-Bakker. New York:
Garland, 1995.
Images of Sainthood in Medieval Europe, edited by Renate
Blumenfeld-Kosinski and Timea K. Szell. Ithaca and London:
Cornell University Press, 1991.
Delany, Sheila. Impolitic Bodies: Poetry, Saints and
Society in Fifteenth-Century England: The Work of Osbern
Bokenham. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998.
Gendered Voices: Medieval Saints and Their Interpreters,
edited by Catherine M. Mooney. Philadelphia: University of
Pennsylvania Press, 1999.
Schulenberg, Jane T. Forgetful of Their Sex: Female
Sanctity and Society ca. 500-1100. Chicago and London:
University of Chicago Press, 1998.
Winstead, Karen. Virgin Martyrs: Legends of Sainthood in
Late Medieval England. Ithaca and London: Cornell
University Press, 1997.
Wogan-Browne, Jocelyn. Saints' Lives and the Literary
Culture of Women, c. 1150-1300: Virginity and its
Authorisations. Oxford: Oxford University Press,
forthcoming.
Mostly on hagiography and female gender, I'm afraid -
partly reflecting the bias of my own work, but I suspect
also reflecting the state of scholarship. I can supply a
more detailed bibliograhy if required.
