| Abstract
|
:
|
The book consists of a collection of interdisciplinary essays, each of which takes an individual approach to young women or the notion of 'youth' as a stage in women's lives in late medieval Europe. Together they form a unique collection which is both wide-ranging in its examination of numerous themes related to young medieval women and coherent in its social and historical focus on the culture of late medieval north-western Europe.
