Abstract

Veel mensen geven openlijk toe nauwelijks boeken van vrouwen te lezen. Leeslijsten op scholen worden gedomineerd door boeken van (witte hetero)mannen. Vrouwen winnen minder literaire prijzen dan mannen. Is dat erg? Ja, want het weerspiegelt en vormt de verhoudingen in de samenleving. Elf vrouwelijke schrijvers zijn verontwaardigd over de ongelijke positie van vrouwen in de letteren, en verenigden zich in het collectief Fixdit. Vanuit bondgenootschap strijden ze voor verandering, in de literaire wereld én in de canon. In de elf stukken van dit manifest diepen zij het probleem uit. Woedend, strijdvaardig, en vooral: optimistisch. Fixdit bestaat uit Yra van Dijk, Sanneke van Hassel, Rachida Lamrabet, Jannah Loontjens, Munganyende Hélène Christelle, Christine Otten, Gaea Schoeters, Shantie Singh, Fleur Speet, Manon Uphoff en Annelies Verbeke.

Abstract

Illuminated here are the relationships between visual culture, faith, and gender in the courtly, monastic, and urban spheres of the early modern Burgundian Netherlands. By examining works by artists such as the Master of Mary of Burgundy, Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling, and Bernard van Orley, author Andrea Pearson identifies and explores pictorial constructions of masculinity and femininity in regard to the expectations, experiences, and practices of devotion. Specifically, she demonstrates that two of the most prominent visual genres of the period, books of hours and devotional portrait diptychs, were manipulated by patrons and spectators of both sexes to challenge and negotiate the boundaries and hierarchies of gender, and that marginalized individuals and groups appropriated the types to resist the authority of others and advance their own. Ultimately, the books and diptychs emerge as critical and often contentious sites for deliberating and transacting gender. By integrating books of hours and devotional portrait diptychs into current interdisciplinary theoretical discourse on gender, power and devotion, the author engages scholars in a range of disciplines: art history, history, religion and literature, as well as women's and men's studies.
