| Sumario: | "In discussions relating to their role during the Middle Ages, women are typically assumed to only have been ?pawns in a political game dominated by men?, or to have primarily acted as intermediaries of power. In this book, however, the varying expressions of power are studied by changing the focus from a political and economic exercise of power controlled by men, to an approach based on interaction and communication between the sexes. In this volume, gender is instead interpreted as a total social phenomenon comprising all spheres of medieval society. This approach provides new opportunities to investigate how power operated on different levels within a societal structure. Thus, power is neither seen as emanating from a centre nor as dominated by only one sex. Instead, it is regarded as an all-embracing societal web, woven through threads of mutual dependence between men and women. In this book, scholars belonging to various disciplines, such as history, history of arts and literary history, discuss how cooperation between the sexes found expression in culture, judicial spheres and social organisation. The contributions do not only consider the Nordic countries, but also how gender constructions were affected by, and transformed through, the influence of contemporary cultural, juridical and ideological currents in Europe. Vanliga uppfattningar i diskussioner om kvinnornas roll under medeltiden {tilde}r att de utgjorde ?brickor i m{tilde}nnens politiska spel? eller att de i f{under}rsta hand verkade som f{under}rmedlare av makt. I denna antologi studeras dock maktens olika uttrycksformer genom att fokus f{under}rflyttas fr{macr}n politisk och ekonomisk maktut{under}vning kontrollerad av m{tilde}n till ett interaktionistiskt syns{tilde}tt baserat p{macr} samspelet och kommunikationen mellan k{under}nen. Genom att se p{macr} genus som ett totalt socialt fenomen omfattande det medeltida samh{tilde}llets alla sf{tilde}rer {under}ppnas m{under}jligheter att unders{under}ka hur makten verkade p{macr} olika niv{macr}er inom samh{tilde}llsstrukturen. Makten betraktas d{tilde}rmed varken som utg{macr}ende fr{macr}n ett centrum eller helt dominerad av ett k{under}n. I boken diskuterar forskare tillh{under}rande olika discipliner s{macr}som historia, konstvetenskap och litteraturvetenskap hur samverkan mellan k{under}nen tog sig uttryck inom kulturen, r{tilde}ttssamh{tilde}llet och den sociala organisationen. Bidragen behandlar inte bara Norden utan {tilde}ven hur k{under}nskonstruktioner p{macr}verkades och f{under}r{tilde}ndrades genom inflytande fr{macr}n samtida kulturella, juridiska och ideologiska str{under}mningar i Europa.
