Both medieval historians and feminist historians will be delighted
about this extraordinary, long-awaited anthology [...] This volume
appears to be the best possible textbook currently available for a
seminar on medieval women, covering the entire spectrum from birth
to death [...] Anyone interested in the life of women in the
premodern era will certainly want to pick up a copy and consult it
intensely.
