Description

Miller argues that one incarnation of monstrosity in the Middle Agesâ?"the female bodyâ?"exists in special relation to medieval conceptualizations of the monstrous. Because female corporeality is pervasive, proximate, and necessary, it illustrates the supreme allure and danger of the monster, thereby highlighting the powers and problems of teratology.
