Queer Love in the Middle Ages points out queer themes in the works
of the French canon, including "Perceval," "Romance of the Rose, "
and "Roman d'Eneas." It brings out less known works that
prominently feature same-sex themes: Yde and Olive, a romance with
a cross-dressed heroine who marries a princess; and many others.
The book combines an interest in contemporary French theory
(Kristeva, Barthes, psychoanalysis) with a close reading of
medieval texts. It discusses important recent publications in
pre-modern queer studies in the US. It is the first major
contribution to queer studies in medieval French literature.
