Coles Gender and Exemplarity in Medieval and Early Modern Spain at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Gender and Exemplarity in Medieval and Early Modern Spain gathers a series of studies on the interplay between gender, sanctity and exemplarity in regard to literary production in the Iberian peninsula. The first section examines how women were construed as saintly examples through narratives, mostly composed by male writers; the second focuses on the use made of exemplary life-accounts by women writers in order to fashion their own social identity and their role as authors.
The volume includes studies on relevant models (Mary Magdalen, Virgin Mary, living saints), means of transmission, sponsorship and agency (reading circles, print, patronage), and female writers (Leonor Lpez de Crdoba, Isabel de Villena, Teresa of vila) involved in creating textual exemplars for women.
Contributors are: Pablo Acosta-Garca, Andrew M. Beresford, Jimena Gamba Corradine, Ryan D. Giles, Mara Morrs, Lesley K. Twomey, Roa Vidal Doval, and Christopher van Ginhoven Rey.
