Much of what we know about Eleanor of Aquitaine Queen of France and then Queen of England we know from recorded rumor gossip often qualified by the curious phrase it was said or the love songs ballads and romances that gossip inspired. While we can mine these stories for evidence about the historical Eleanor Karen Sullivan invites us to consider instead what even the most fantastical of these tales reveals about this queen and life as a twelfth - century noblewoman. She reads the Middle Ages not to impose our current conceptual categories on its culture but to expose the conceptual categories medieval women used to make sense of their lives. Along the way Sullivan paints a fresh portrait of this singular medieval queen and the women who shared her world.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Eleanor Of Aquitaine As It Was Said Truth And Tales About The Medieval Queen\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Sullivan Professor Karen\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: The University Of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780226825830\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 304 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 8\/16\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: History","brand":"Sullivan Professor Karen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49593426936113,"sku":"IN-G-9780226825830","price":47.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780226825830.jpg?v=1753226008","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780226825830-eleanor-of-aquitaine-as-it-was-said-truth-and-tales-about-the-medieval-queen","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
