Description
Femina: A New History of the Middle Ages, Through the Women Written Out of It
Oxford and BBC historian Janina Ramirez reveals the hidden stories of influential women whose lives were erased from history. Through a careful examination of artefacts, writings and possessions, Ramirez uncovers the true impact of women like Jadwiga, Margery Kempe and the Loftus Princess, whose existence sheds new light on the medieval world.
By challenging the conventional narrative of the Middle Ages, Ramirez brings to light the multifaceted lives of women who were gatekeepers of the past, shaping the myths, legends and historical documents that have been passed down to us.
