Abstract
Because Marie de France’s Fables allegorizes twelfth-century feudal relations, its strategic essentialisms are easily read as products of medieval class-based hierarchies. But recent work in medieval studies proposes that the classist hierarchies portrayed in the Fables were imbricated with racial thought—or even that the two were constitutive of one another.
