Includes Old French text and English translation of the life of Saint Eufrosine, who dressed as a man to become a monk in a monastery. Mixing hagiography, romance, epic, and theology, this work from around 1200 CE raises questions about sexuality and identity, family relationships, and spiritual and secular values.
