Book Synopsis The Afterlives of Rape in Medieval English Literature by : S. Edwards
Book excerpt: From devotional literature to political narratives, medieval texts propose that sexual violence victims have privileged moral, ethical, and spiritual insight. This book explores these discourses of survival in a wide range of medieval English texts, including letters of spiritual advice, legal cases, romances, and legendary histories.
