Power Of Women
The "Power of Women" () is a medieval and Renaissance artistic and literary topos, showing "heroic or wise men dominated by women", presenting "an admonitory and often humorous inversion of the male-dominated sexual hierarchy". It was defined by Susan L. Smith as "the representational practice of bringing together at least two, but usually more, well-known figures from the Bible, ancient history, or romance to exemplify a cluster of interrelated themes that include the wiles of women, the power of love, and the trials of marriage". Smith argues that the topos is not simply a "straightforward manifestation of medieval antifeminism"; rather, it is "a site of contest through which conflicting ideas about gender roles could be expressed". Smith argues the topos originates in classical literature and finds it in medieval texts such as '' Aucassin et Nicolette'', ''The Consolation of Philosophy'', the ''Roman de la Rose'', and the ''Canterbury Tales''.Harp p. 208 The topos was ...
