In Mulieres suadentes - Persuasive Women, Martin Homza scrutinises the genesis of ruler ideology among the most prominent East Central and Eastern European dynasties from the early and later Middle Ages. At the center of attention are the Přemyslids, the Piasts, the Rurikids, and the Árpáds, but also the main dynasties of the Balkans, namely the Trpimirović and the Nemanjić dynasties, as well as the House of Bogdan, and the Moldova dynasty of the Muṣatins. Unlike previous work, which has focused on narrative sources of male ruler hagiography, Homza studies texts concerning female royal figures. More broadly, this book also attempts to bridge the artificial gap between West and East in Europe.

Pouvait-on changer de genre au Moyen Âge ? Vivre en homme et devenir sainte ? Naître fille et finir chevalier ? Changer d'habits comme d'identité durant cette période dominée par la chrétienté ? Pour faire taire les idées reçues, Clovis Maillet démontre que les expériences de transidentité ne sont pas l'apanage de la modernité. Que le combat pour l'émancipation peut même passer par la réappropriation des figures de l'histoire. Ainsi l'héritage de Jeanne d'Arc est-il disputé à la droite nationaliste par les militants queer libertaires qui la considèrent, depuis la fin du XXe siècle, comme une guerrière transgenre. De Jeanne d'Arc à Hildegonde-Joseph en passant par Eugénie-Eugène, sainte Thècle ou le chevalier Silence, ce livre propose une réflexion sur le genre en retraçant une histoire trans de l'époque médiévale.
