| Description: |
Advances theoretical, historical and literary analysis of masculinity and sexuality in medieval literature. This book analyzes key texts of medieval literature, including Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales", to advance understanding of queer masculinities. It addresses the ways in which medievalism serves as a queered and queering academic discipline. |
| Synopsis: |
This book exposes the ways in which ostensibly normative sexualities depend upon queerness to shore up their claims of privilege. Through readings of such classic texts as The Canterbury Tales and Eger and Grime , Tison Pugh explains how sexual normativity can often be claimed only after queerness has been rejected. |
