| Abstract
|
:
|
"A lively and thought-provoking study of gender in the Arthurian community. It is at once theoretically sophisticated and highly readable, full of insightful close readings yet conscious of larger patterns of analysis."--Laurie Finke, Kenyon CollegeGender and the Chivalric Community in Malorys Morte dArthur reveals, for the first time in a book-length study, how Thomas Malorys unique approach to gender identity in his revisions of earlier Arthurian works produces a text entirely unlike others in the canon of medieval romance.
