"Queer Love in the Middle Ages points out queer themes in the work of the French canon, including Perceval, the Romance of the Rose, and the Roman d'Eneas. It brings out less-known works that prominently feature same-sex themes, such as Yde and Olive, a romance with a cross-dressed heroine who marries a princess; and many others. The book combines an interest in contemporary French theory (Kristeva, Barthes, psychoanalysis) with a close reading of medieval texts. It discusses important recent publications in pre-modern queer studies in the United States and is the first major contribution to queer studies in medieval French literature."--Jacket.
