Book excerpt: Although there were a number of women writers of the late Middle Ages, it was not thought that women composed lyric poetry. Classen's investigation, however, proves this to be a misconception, and presents a selection of secular love songs and religious hymns composed by 15th- and 16th-century German women poets.
