Description

This scholarly work examines the fertility challenges and reproductive pressures faced by royal couples in medieval England and Scotland between 1200 and 1400. The book challenges conventional understandings of royal fertility by uncovering previously overlooked experiences of secondary infertility, sub-fertility, and contemporary anxiety about reproduction among couples who did produce children. Situated within the broader history of infertility, this study reveals how royal families navigated reproductive difficulties and responded to societal expectations for succession. The Borderlines series contribution offers fresh insights into the personal and political dimensions of fertility in the medieval period, demonstrating that reproductive concerns extended beyond absolute infertility to encompass a spectrum of challenges that shaped royal life and dynastic strategy.

Key Features

Focuses on royal couples' reproductive experiences in thirteenth and fourteenth century England and Scotland during a critical period of medieval history.

Challenges existing perceptions of medieval royal fertility by documenting secondary infertility and sub-fertility cases previously overlooked in historical scholarship.

Explores contemporary medieval anxiety about reproduction and succession pressures that affected royal families and dynastic planning.

Published by ARC Humanities Press as part of the Borderlines series, offering academic analysis of medieval royal life and gender.
