This collection addresses questions of gender and sexuality as they relate to music from the middle ages to the early seventeenth century.

Examining the common compositional practice of borrowing or imitation in 15th-and 16th-century music, this text addresses how and why borrowing was used, the significance of borrowing, the techniques of borrowing, and its recognizable features.

This collection gathers Margaret Bent's influential writings on this controversial subject from the past thirty years, along with an extensive author's introduction discussing the state of scholarship and responding to critics.
