Femina

In this compelling audiobook, BBC historian Janina Ramirez uncovers the overlooked contributions of extraordinary women throughout history, particularly during the Middle Ages. Challenging the traditional view of a male-dominated, oppressive era, Ramirez reveals how powerful women were systematically erased from historical records by gatekeepers of the past. Through vivid storytelling and evidence from multiple disciplines, the book explores the ways myths and misconceptions have shaped our understanding of history and highlights the influence of these women on society.
