Summary
Like the ancient world, the Middle Ages was patriarchal and male-dominated, so a woman had few options - to get married, to become a nun, or to turn to prostitution. But Chaucer's Wife of Bath, the seducer in "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight," and the notion of courtly love all added new dimensions to womanhood.
