Citation
Description Czech society is considered one of the most conservative in Western Europe when it comes to the role of women. The same is true in the Catholic Church, where women, because they cannot be ordained, find themselves outside the church hierarchy. But has this always been the case? And what can medieval art "add" to this? This lecture aims to reflect on how art (of the past) mirrors social transformations, but perhaps also stigmatization.
