- Title
Tan lejos, tan cerca. Algunos ejemplos del uso del espacio femenino en la literatura inglesa medieval.
- Authors
Hernández Pérez, María Beatriz
- Abstract
The connection between space and gender has been a key issue in Medieval Studies for quite some time. Within that tradition, this work tries to approach two English texts: Ancrene Wisse, a manual intended for three 13th century recluses from Herefordshire, and thee Book of Margery Kempe, the autobiographic account of a devout early fiftheenth-century wife from King's Lynn. Both texts prove the relevance of this relationship as well as confirm that these female figures would turn complementary in the late medieval religious landscape.
