The Literature of Misogyny in Medieval Spain examines the medical
underpinnings of two major misogynist works from fifteenth-century
Iberia: Alonso de Martinez's Arcipreste de Talavera and Jacme
Roig's Spill. Michael Solomon argues that these works gain their
persuasive force by linking concerns over health and illness with
men's behaviour towards women. Solomon shows how the demonization
of women in medieval society was more than a cultural phenomenon;
it was a legitimate aspect of the healing arts, considered vital to
the well-being of men.
