Section Info:
Fall 2016 FR 323 Marie de France: Authorship, Patronage, Reading and Textuality in the Twelfth Century As we read the works attributed to Marie, her lays, beast fables, a llegend of Saint Patrick, and the life of Saint Audrey, we will consider a woman's self-definition in a culture whose understanding of creativity and authority commonly excluded women. We will also sample works that form the cultural context of her times: courtly lovesong, romance, didactic literature, medical and theological discourse. We will approach our subject from three angles, the representation of women in texts, women as audience, and women as poets.
