Intersections of Gender, Religion and Ethnicity in the Middle Ages Reviews

The essays are overall remarkably clear in their argumentation and conclusions, with well-justified, representative choices of primary material and concise discussions of the most relevant secondary sources . . . rewarding reading for both a specialized and general audience. - Stephanie Knauss, University of Cologne, Germany, Women's Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal

This volume is to be applauded for bringing together examinations of both masculinity and femininity, as gender difference is interrogated in both directions. - Margaret Cotter-Lynch, Southeastern Oklahoma State University, US
