- 요약This dissertation investigates the construction and practice of female power in the twelfth century through a study of a multi-generational clan of queens and countesses from northern France and Flanders and their experiences in the broader context of aristocratic culture. The experiences of these women as daughters, wives, mothers, widows, and rulers are compared to contemporary depictions of queens and other elite women found in courtly literature, especially the romances of Chretien de Troyes, and devotional material dedicated to the Virgin Mary, including Psalter images and sermon literature. The comparative and interdisciplinary methodology of this project addresses two interrelated issues currently facing the study of elite, premodern women: first, the perception that, as a rule, elite women did not wield power and that only the exceptional few did so, and second, that the framing of women's power as exceptional is exacerbated by a relative paucity of sources written by or about women. Together, these problems obscure the integral roles women played in medieval institutions of power, such as monarchy and the aristocratic family. This dissertation argues that medieval women were integral to medieval monarchy and the aristocratic family, and that most elite women, not only the exceptional few, drew upon a discourse of female power that was primarily informed by ideas about the Virgin Mary as the archetypical queen and perfect woman. This discourse provided elite women with strategies with which they could draw upon at all stages of their lives and existed beyond the privileges afforded to them by their rank.
