5512A Women And Family In Medieval And Early (3)

This course explores the roles of women in the social, economic, political, and cultural environments of medieval and early modern Europe. We examine the lives of women in all areas of life, from the ordinary to the extraordinary, in urban and rural environments, from the centers of religious and political power to the margins of society. Focus will be on the world of work for urban and peasant women and on the social and legal institutions of marriage, kinship, and the family. The course makes extensive use of primary source by and about women during this period.
