Wisdom and Her Lovers in Medieval and Early Modern Hispanic Literature
Details
This book explores how Medieval and Early Modern writers reconstructed, and also how readers read, the contradictory meanings of "Lady" Wisdom.
"In a study that features close readings of little-known and very well known texts and examination of marginalia and other indications of reader response, [Francomano] deftly traces the troubled relationship between women and wisdom . . . an overview cannot do justice to the richness and complexity of Emily Francomano's book." - Speculum
