[edit]

A page on the topic of "Medieval Singlewomen" does not exist on Wikipedia.

Some valuable sources to include:

http://www.upenn.edu/pennpress/book/135.html - Singlewomen in the European Past: This book explores the role and position of European singlewomen (1250-1800) in society.

https://muse.jhu.edu/journals/journal_of_womens_history/v022/22.2.vicinus.html - The Single Woman: Social Problem or Social Solution? by Martha Vicinus

Within our new page, we plan to discuss:

- the definition of singlewomen

- the demographics/prevalence of singlewomen in medieval society

- the role of singlewomen in medieval society

- the social status of medieval singlewomen (how did others view these singlewomen?)

- the economic power of singlewomen

Initial Review

[edit]

Given that this article is being group-edited, I'll hold off on edits, however:

The article seems to be exclusively about European women. Should the title be changed to reflect this, or the scope expanded? FunkMonk (talk) 20:41, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
