Abstract

The transmission of knowledge in clerical and academic settings of the later Middle Ages has been relatively well studied by traditional scholarship. But successes achieved in other subject-areas by the application of a set of methodologies grouped under the rubric of ‘gender studies’ may offer insights into medieval education. This approach invites a re-examination in gender-political terms of the definition of knowledge by clerical elites and the concomitant rejection from the category of ‘knowledge’ of many varieties of knowledge which did not coincide with their template. The ten articles of this volume focus both on the perennial valorization of the content and methods of clerical/academic education, on the limitation of venues for its transmission to sites from which women were categorically excluded, and, in terms of media for the transmission of knowledge, on the attendant restriction of the techniques and media considered valid for the storage, retrieval, and communication of knowledge to those that were current in these privileged sites.The volume addresses the following issues: what varieties of knowledge were available to communities of women? What kinds of knowledge originated in or became characteristic of women’s communities? What techniques did women develop to preserve and transmit their knowledge? In what ways and with what success was women’s knowledge valorized, both by authors from within these communities and by ‘authoritative’ figures from outside? Under what circumstances could women become authoritative originators of and transmitters of knowledge?

Abstract

This volume deals with the ways in which religious Faith was communicated and adapted during the late medieval period and after, and with the ways in which spirituality, culture, written texts and gender interacted during the same period. Drawing on texts like the Book of Margery Kempe , popular prayers, romances and devotions, well-known devout practices, mystical and visionary writing, and devout representations like the Arma Christi , the book addresses the ways in which these both informed and were informed by attitudes towards Faith and Belief which continue today. Subjects include: the development of religious attitudes; devotion to Christ's blood; the influence of mysticism on literary texts; Chaucer's feminism; Eastern sources; and the transmission of medieval spirituality into the New World.
