Essay / Research Paper Abstract
Labels in any time period tend to fluctuate -we
may call the Middle Ages that period of time from
the twelfth century to the fifteenth century. An
art historian would label these early, high and
late Gothic, but for the sake of discussion we will
use "Medieval," to encompass both. A large part
of the population at this time was illiterate, but
that does not mean that they did not love stories
like the rest of us. What has survived from that
period are the stories, in the forms of the works
of Christine de Pisan (1363 - 1431) and Jean
Foissart ( c 1330 - c1404). Yet we will see
different pictures of the same society from their
point of view as we examine their works.
