About this book

A scholarly study of how childhood was understood and represented in German literature of the Middle Ages, 1100-1350, written by James A. Schultz and published by the University of Pennsylvania Press in 1995 in its Middle Ages series. It examines medieval German narrative texts in which abandonment, abduction and dislocation are commonplace, and considers how childhood differs for males and females and for saintly and secular figures, and how it figures in courtly culture.
