Queer Love in the Middle Ages |
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.
