Lezing: Female Spaces in Medieval Amsterdam
On March 8, International Women's Day, Serena Ferente gives a lecture about the life of women in Medieval Amsterdam. The young city grew very quickly in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries and women played a crucial role in shaping the social and built environment of it. This lecture analyses the concept of 'female spaces' and uses it to explore the lives of women in medieval Amsterdam, particularly women seeking alternative, collective, and flexible modes of living, negotiating their place within the institutions of the family, government, and the church.
