Margery Kempe and her Book studied in both literary and historical context.


Marc Notes: Originally published: 2004.; Transferred to digital printing.; Includes bibliographical references and index.; 8; This text contains chapters on Margery Kempe and the ages of woman, men and Margery, drama and piety, Margery's bodies, and Margery Kempe and saint-making in later Medieval England. Publisher Marketing: Margery Kempe's Book provides rare access to the "marginal voice" of a lay medieval woman, and is now the focus of much critical study. This Companion seeks to complement the existing almost exclusively literary scholarship with work that also draws significantly on historical analysis, and is concerned to contextualise Kempe's Book in a number of different ways, using her work as a way in to the culture and society of medieval northern Europe. Topics include images and pilgrimage; women, work and trade in medieval Norfolk; political culture and heresy; the prophetic tradition; female mystics and the body; women's roles and lifecycle; religious drama and reenactment; autobiography and gender.

PHILLIPS, SARAH SALIH, CLAIRE SPONSLER, DIANE WATT, BARRY WINDEATT.
