"Medieval writing proves to be far from silent on these issues: this study traces debate and dialogue across intellectual and literary discourses, to place Middle English literary portrayals of rape and ravishment in the context of shifting legal, theological and medical attitudes. Particular emphasis is given to the distinctive legal history of rape in England, as an increased interest in property blurs notions of rape and abduction, and to the rather different concerns of the Church - virginity, chastity, the individual will, the dangers of lust and desire." "The study then considers the treatment of rape and ravishment in a range of literary genres: in hagiography, female saints are repeatedly threatened with rape; the stories of Lucretia and Helen underpin legendary history; the acts of rape and ravishment challenge and shape chivalric order in romance; otherworldly rapes result in the conception of romance heroes. The final two chapters examine the ways in which Malory and Chaucer write and rewrite rape and ravishment."--Jacket
