From the Paper:

"In this carefully constructed book, Medieval Women, M. M. Postan has set for herself the task of editing the scintillating research of her late colleague and fellow medievalist, Eileen Power. The sensitivity with which this book is formulated is evidenced by its first observation. Power indicates that a culture is often judged by the status it allots to women as well as how they are treated. Power reveals her deft historical skills when she observes with simple lucidity that the Middle Ages offers its scholars a particularly daunting task of appraisal on this topic. To understand the true position of women Power declares that there must be a blending of their everyday life, its legal rights and restrictions, and a consideration of their theoretical status."
