In the newly-identified genre of medieval patience literature,
female protagonists move to the center of the action-an unusual
advance for medieval literature. In addition, the patience genre
shifts from one mainly concerned with mimicry to one mainly
concerned with reduplication, so that fresh interpretations of
early medieval works can arise and exciting revisions to
genre-theory can develop, often from a surprisingly feminist point
of view. As a result, this book helps to redress popular notions of
the Middle Ages as a time when women had 'no rights' and 'no
voices' and were treated as mere sex objects and as the property of
men.
