Today on the History with Jackson podcast, we are featuring a feed drop episode from our Podcast of the Year Winner: History Rage!

Unleash the untold tales of labour and legacy in this fiery episode of History Rage, as we journey into the heart of medieval womanhood with the formidable scholar and podcast co-host, Eleanor Janega. With her razor-sharp wit and boundless knowledge, Eleanor dismantles the myth of the idle medieval woman, confined to motherhood and marriage, and reveals a world where women wielded influence, managed businesses, and toiled alongside men.

The Rage Against Misconceptions:

- Eleanor exposes the historical fallacy that medieval women were mere bystanders in a world of men, highlighting their active participation in farming, trade, and even politics.

- The episode shatters the image of the medieval woman as a silent figure, revealing her as a savvy entrepreneur, a skilled artisan, and a fierce negotiator in guilds and markets.

Women's Work and Worth:

- Dive into the diverse roles women played, from the fields to the frontlines of commerce, challenging the notion that their contributions were limited to domestic spheres.

- Eleanor passionately argues for the recognition of women's work throughout history, emphasizing their economic and social agency in medieval society.

The Historical Hierarchy:

- The discussion navigates the complex social strata of the time, where a woman's class often dictated her opportunities and freedoms.

- From the peasant to the noblewoman, explore how societal expectations and personal ambitions shaped the lives of medieval women.

Preserving Their Stories:

- Eleanor urges us to honour the legacies of these women, advocating for a more nuanced understanding of their roles and the erasure of the gendered biases that have long clouded our view of the past.

Join us as Eleanor Janega ignites a historical revolution, championing the untold stories of medieval women and challenging the stereotypes that have confined them to the margins. To delve deeper into this rich history, grab a copy of her incisive book "The Once and Future Sex: Going Medieval on Women's Roles in Society," available through the History Rage bookshop.
