Description:This important book launches the medieval tier of Longman's new gender history series, Women and Men in History. The volume, which is aimed at students, scholars and general readers alike, examines masculinity across medieval Europe (including the Byzantine Empire, Italy, France, Germany, and England) between the fourth and sixteenth centuries. Scholarly, and yet always accessible, the book is a much-needed contribution to the study of gender in the Middle Ages.
