Queer Love in the Middle Ages (The New Middle Ages)
(Part of the The New Middle Ages Series)
No Customer Reviews
Queer Love in the Middle Ages points out queer themes in the works of the French canon, including Perceval, Romance of the Rose, and Roman d'Eneas. It brings out less known works that prominently feature same-sex themes: Yde and Olive, a romance with a cross-dressed heroine who marries a princess; and many others. The book combines an interest in contemporary French theory (Kristeva, Barthes, psychoanalysis) with a close reading of medieval texts. It discusses important recent publications in pre-modern queer studies in the US. It is the first major contribution to queer studies in medieval French literature.
