The Life and Afterlife of Isabeau of Bavaria
ISBN: 9780801896255 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The fascinating history of Isabeau of Bavaria is a tale of two queens. During her lifetime, Isabeau, the long-suffering wife of mad King Charles VI of France, was respected and revered. After her death, she was reviled as an incompetent regent, depraved adulteress, and betrayer of the throne. Asserting that there is no historical support for this posthumous reputation, Tracy Adams returns Isabeau to her rightful place in history. Adulteress and traitor--two charges long leveled against the queen--are the first subjects of Adam's reinterpretation of medieval French history. Scholars...

Female Beauty Systems: Beauty as Social Capital in Western Europe and the United States, Middle Ages to the Present
ISBN: 9781443878241 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Female beauty systems everywhere are complex, integrating markers of class, status, power, and sexuality to perform the fundamental function of sorting individuals into categories of more or less desirable. Heirs to the tradition of courtly love, modern western female beauty systems tend to share the norm of man as pursuer, woman as pursued, having developed around the trope of the madly-desiring poet or knight supplicating his aloof and lovely lady for her favor. The apparent longevity of the courtly love tradition raises the question of whether the way in which it structures male desire in...

The Waxing of the Middle Ages: Revisiting Late Medieval France
ISBN: 9781644532911 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Johan Huizinga’s much-loved and much-contested Autumn of the Middle Ages, first published in 1919, encouraged an image of the Late French Middle Ages as a flamboyant but empty period of decline and nostalgia. Many studies, particularly literary studies, have challenged Huizinga’s perceptions of individual works or genres. Still, the vision of the Late French and Burgundian Middle Ages as a sad transitional phase between the High Middle Ages and the Renaissance persists. Yet, a series of exceptionally significant cultural developments mark the period. The Waxing of the Middle Ages sets...
