- Description
- Plenary address to the Illinois Medieval Association; adapted from Dinshaw's Getting Medieval: Sexualities and Communities, Pre- and Postmodern (SAC 23 [2001], no. 184). Discusses late-medieval court records concerning cross-dressing and prostitution, comparing them at points with details and attitudes reflected in CkT, WBPT, and PardPT. Dinshaw argues that such materials can underpin a heterogeneous "queer history."
