Gender in progress. Feminine and masculine representation in the Roman des sept sages.

该项目将语言学、手稿研究和性别理论结合在一起，研究被忽视的古法国罗马圣人，这是一个框架故事，其中一系列故事是由epsophos圣人讲述的，以证明女人的邪恶。基于性别不是生物学决定的，而是特定社会话语的产物这一认识，该项目侧重于讲故事，将其作为表演的一个关键要素。它探讨了性别话语的机制和叙事技巧，并在八次编辑中进行，为阅读文本提供了新的方法。

This project brings together philology, manuscript studies and gender theory in a study of the neglected Old French Roman des sept sages, a frame-story in which a series of tales is told by the eponymous Sages to demonstrate the wickedness of woman. Drawing on the understanding that gender is not biologically determined but is the product of a discourse performed by a given society, this project focuses upon storytelling as a key element of that performance. It explores the mechanisms and narrative techniques by which gendered discourse is constructed and performed across the eight redactions, providing new approaches to reading the text.
