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.

This book aims to collect and present the results of research done within the context of the project ‘The voice of silence / La voz del silencio: An interdisciplinary research project about literate women and women authors in the West-European late Middle Ages from a gender perspective (11th to 15th centuries)’. The project was a bilateral research project, with participants of the University of Chile in Santiago on the one hand and the Universities of Gent and Antwerpen on the other. Medieval scholars, literary historians and literary theorists joined forces. The angle from which the material was being studied, however, was always the same: gender being the central issue. The project focused on women as participants in late medieval society and culture of the Rhineland and the Low Countries. Indeed, all the researchers involved acquired their expertise in this field and/or the field of women’s literacy.Several members of this Flemish-Chilean project have contributed an essay to this book, but supplemented by guest authors. The guests are internationally renowned scholars reflecting an expertise in gender studies or in an aspect not covered by the team members of the project. Their contributions complete the research results of the project.The story told in this book is focused on literate women and gender. In the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the voices of women authors, many of them religious and mystics, resounded in a literate society dominated by clerics. Hildegard of Bingen and Hadewijch, two of the most famous representatives of this ‘female voice’ are highlighted in Part I. These women were the forerunners of a new reading culture among (semi-)religious and even lay women in which the use of the vernacular was a decisive factor (Part II). Yet, from the thirteenth century onwards, and with increasing intensity towards the end of the Middle Ages, men once more tried to get a grip on women’s reading and writing. Aspects of these attemps are illustrated in part III.
