Working at the intersection of medical, theological, cultural, and
literary studies, Marking Maternity offers an innovative approach
to understanding maternity, genealogy, and social identity as they
are represented in popular literature in late-medieval England.
This book examines how Middle English romances have come to reflect
the impact of dominant contemporary discourses of maternal
influence and contamination upon individuals, communities, and
families. Angela Florschuetz goes onto argue while these romances
often reference and participate in contemporary discourses that
identify the maternal with contamination, they also reframe the
problem of maternal influence by focusing on the corrosive effects
of these anxieties upon all levels of society.
