| Abstract | This is the second of two panels that will bring together papers that engage with gender, identity, and the medieval bishop or secular clergy. The authors will query when issues or incidences of gender or identity affect the roles of bishops/secular clergy? How did gender or identity affect their ideas, their positions within the Church, or how they related to the world around them? Paper will examine the gendered roles in the Church vis-a-vis bishops; interactions between bishops and lay people with gendered significance; and bishops/secular clergy as embodiments of gendered behaviors; power relationships; or episcopal identities. |
