Preprints and early-stage research may not have been peer reviewed yet.
Abstract
This chapter discusses medieval women's uses of epistolarity, c. 1000-1400 in political, administrative and religious contexts, revealing the ways in which some women – typically elites – were able to negotiate the world in which they lived, and the hierarchies into which they were born. The chapter also examines changes and continuities between the expression and function of Latin and vernacular epistolary forms.
