Question

Based on these documents, what socioeconomic and sociopolitical conditions in late medieval Europe do you think combined to ‘‘infantilize’’ women and severely limit their legal rights?

Answer 1

According to the reading of the documents, we can see that the lack of education and the limitation to social and economic experiences were the elements that helped women to be "infantilized" in Europe at the end of the Middle Ages.

As we can see in the documents presented, women were not allowed to participate in courts, to sell and buy goods, to own goods, to sign contracts, or even to receive adequate education. These women were seen as totally dependent on their husbands and incapable of doing anything.

This lack of education and lack of experience with the social and economic sectors of society contributed to women not finding out how to act alone and encouraging concepts that devalued them.

This allowed:

• Women were devalued.
• Women were negatively exploited.
• Politicians use women's inability to limit rights related to them.
• Women lived with severe limitations for many years.
