Requests:  0 Summary:  Through examination of artefacts, writings, and possessions, this reappraisal of medieval femininity presents countless cases of influential women such as Jadwiga, the only female King in Europe, whose names were struck from history. The Middle Ages are seen as a bloodthirsty time of Vikings, saints and kings; a patriarchal society that oppressed and excluded women. But when we dig a little deeper into the truth, we can see that the "Dark" Ages were anything but. Oxford and BBC historian Janina Ramirez has uncovered countless influential women's names struck out of historical records, with the word Femina annotated beside them. As gatekeepers of the past ordered books to be burned, artworks to be destroyed, and new versions of myths, legends and historical documents to be produced, our view of history has been manipulated.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 909.07082 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.07082 Ramirez Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.07082 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 909.07082 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.07082 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 909.07082 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList
