Presented in an engaging and accessible way, it is likely to become a go-to text for students and teachers of medieval history, including those for whom the study of the gender or the study of the Middle Ages is new territory. ... This book is likely to be the obvious starting point for anyone seeking to engage in such a study and should be included in all university libraries. (Jennifer Farrell, Speculum, Vol. 96 (1), January, 2021)

This is a lucid and lively introduction to the study of women, masculinity and sexuality in Europe, c.500-1500. Skinner offers her own stimulating take on the important debates of recent decades, illuminates key concepts, and suggests source material that students might explore further. * Cordelia Beattie, University of Edinburgh, UK * Skinner's study of the history of writing on women, gender, and sexuality in the Middle Ages should be essential reading for all students of the medieval era, and is one that I will assign in classes again and again. * Linda Mitchell, UMKC, USA *
