LIKE A WOMAN
Finding the Feminine in Medieval France
15th-century French songs from the female or non-gendered poetic perspective. These pieces, wrenchingly emotional and playful by turns, provide a counternarrative to the pedestals & pitfalls of courtly love . . . a paradigm with a legacy that complicates partnerships to this day. With readings from the works of Christine de Pizan (1364 – c. 1430).
