Abstract

"This work looks at queenship in a global, timeless sense—examining the role of queens, empresses, and other royal women from the ancient and classical period through to nearly the present day on every continent. By looking at queenship in this comparative, longue durée way, we can start to see connecting threads and continuity over time and space as well as the change and development and comparisons of how the queen’s role differed in various cultural contexts. A wide variety of examples are given to explain and contextualize key themes in queenship: family and dynasty, rulership, and image crafting. The introduction provides a brief overview of the development of queenship studies and a discussion of the ideals that queens were expected to conform to. This book offers a radically new perspective on queenship studies which enables new insights into the queen’s role as the preeminent woman in the realm."--

Abstract

Los estudios de género están vigentes en la actualidad, y más si se atiende a la Edad Media. En el libro se aborda al ámbito femenino desde una orientación transversal que se aproxima desde la historia y la literatura a diferentes voces que se escuchan a través de los discursos legados en textos pertenecientes a tipologías muy distintas. Los enfoques complementarios pretenden dar cuenta de las múltiples caras de la realidad femenina en un período dinámico en el que nuevos horizontes estaban emergiendo para el individuo con códigos lingüísticos inéditos (lenguas vernáculas), con géneros desconocidos hasta el momento y con una situación política en transformación. El volumen compila una serie de estudios de especialistas alrededor de voces de mujeres medievales, articulados alrededor de tres apartados, que se complementan e interrelacionan: la feminidad histórica refleja la actividad cultural y literaria que ejercieron ciertas damas y reinas, la feminidad autorial se centra en aspectos novedosos de figuras que iniciaron el mundo de las letras femeninas y, por último, la feminidad textual se fija en el protagonismo femenino de ficciones literarias. Se muestra una diversidad compleja de discursos femeninos, pertenecientes a una época en la que las mujeres dejaban oír su voz. The contributions gathered in this volume take a fresh look at the medieval history of women, revealing the many faces of female reality during an extremely dynamic period-while individuality was on the rise, new linguistic codes (vernacular languages) and innovative literary genres were emerging, and the political situation was undergoing deep changes. The book is structured in three interrelated sections: The first is dedicated to "Historical femininity" and documents the cultural and literary activities carried out by women from the nobility. The second is about "Authorial femininity" and explores the innovative work of both prominent and lesser-known female writers. The last section deals with "Textual femininity" and analyses the female protagonists of lyric poetry and narrative literature. As a whole, the book shows how complex and diverse medieval discourses on and from women were.
