Description
Animal skin plays a special role on the human body, taking up a position of both proximity and difference in relation to its human wearer. In medieval literature, the interplay between human and animal body coverings is used to question, discuss, and negotiate dichotomies of clothing and nudity, courtliness and wildness, man and woman, the familiar and the foreign.
