| Summary | "Die Frauenfrage im Mittelalter" by Karl Bücher is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the societal and economic roles of women during the medieval period, particularly focusing on the demographic imbalances between men and women and the implications for women's employment and social status. The book examines how various factors, including wars, mortality rates, and societal constraints, contributed to a significant surplus of women in urban settings and the resulting impact on their livelihoods. The opening of the book introduces the concept of the "women's question" as a historical issue, framing it within the context of medieval society. It highlights the author’s intention to explore the economic plight of women during this era, noting the statistical imbalance in gender ratios and how it forced many women into self-sustaining roles amid societal constraints. Büchner reflects on the evolving understanding of women's rights and roles, emphasizing that even in the past, discussions around women's employment were complex and layered with historical sociopolitical influences. Through a series of preliminary observations, the author sets the stage for a deeper investigation into women's experiences, labor, and societal expectations in the medieval framework.
