This invaluable reference work addresses sex, gender, and sexuality in medieval Europe and North Africa, providing an important update previous handbooks from the 1990s. With lucid definitions, theoretical engagement, and wide geographic coverage, it is the new indispensable guide to the subject. The editors and authors establish institutional foundations and explore expressions of sex and sexuality across medieval cultures, analyzing examples from legal, religious, artistic, literary, medical, and other sources. This handbook begins with a section devoted to definitions and vocabulary before progressing to cultural topics and concluding with geographically-specific traditions and practices related to sexuality. Essays authored by specialists in relevant fields include both primary and secondary sources, contain examinations of the three major religions, and address broader cultural and historical ramifications of these topics.
