{"product_id":"9781837650293","title":"Medieval Women Religious, c. 800-c. 1500 : New Perspectives by Professor Alison More","description":"A multi-disciplinary re-evaluation of the role of women religious in the Middle Ages, both inside and outside the cloister.   Medieval women found diverse ways of expressing their religious aspirations: within the cloister as members of monastic and religious orders, within the world as vowesses, or between the two as anchorites. Via a range of disciplinary approaches, from history, archaeology, literature, and the visual arts, the essays in this volume challenge received scholarly narratives and re-examine the roles of women religious: their authority and agency within their own communities and the wider world; their learning and literacy; place in the landscape; and visual culture. Overall, they highlight the impact of women on the world around them, the significance of their presence in communities, and the experiences and legacies they left behind.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56307756204405,"sku":"9781837650293","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781837650293.jpg?v=1762805168","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781837650293","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
