Symbolic Reproduction in Early Medieval England

Secular and Monastic Households

Beschreibung

Katharine Sykes examines a new type of household to emerge in early medieval England: the monastic household. Reproducing through education and training, rather than biological means, monastic households introduce new ideas of spiritual, non-biological reproduction to their royal and secular counterparts.
