NOVI SAD
Event: Lecture/presentation „Medieval women from the margins of society – witches, prostitutes, slaves“
Place: The Novi Sad Culture Centre (Novosadski Kulturni Centar)
Time: 7th December, at 7 pm
Dr Boris Stojkovski will give a history lecture titled of “Medieval women from the margins of society: witches, prostitutes, slaves” on Friday, December 7th at 7 pm at the Novi Sad Culture Centre. There is an abundance of historical information about the so-called the upper strata of the medieval society – rulers, military leaders, and ecclesiastical dignitaries. However, people, specifically, in this case, women, members of the marginalized social classes, also had their place in society. Slavery was an institution that survived the Middle Ages, and it is still present today, while women slaves were found all over Europe and the Mediterranean. And prostitution, although persecuted and condemned, was a special social phenomenon, as was witchcraft, during medieval times.
