Jason Lubinski of University of Oklahoma presents “Whose Gender Is It? Constructing Characteristics and Personalities in Medieval Literature”.

Chaucer's Blurred Gender Lines. Chaucer and some of his fellow contemporary authors enjoyed playing with gender and characteristics in their literary characters. In this talk we will explore those gender constructions and what might influence medieval authors in their character development.
