It presents a hypothesis regarding its genre, its composition and use at the Catalan-Aragonese Court, and its later fortuna. It considers how Master Joan inscribed in the text a conception of women’s medical needs, while also defining lay women’s involvement in maintaining their health.}, publisher = {Universidad de Granada}, title = {From a Master to a Laywoman: A Feminine Manual of Self-Help}, author = {Cabré, Montserrat}, }
