Abstract (2. Language): 
This article argues that the pilgrimage experiences of Margery Kempe in the Book of Margery Kempe provide relevant evidence about the dangers and difficulties experienced by medieval women pilgrims. Margery's constant articulation of rape as a threat to women pilgrims presents medieval pilgrimage as a gendered experience, and her story reveals medieval women's subjugation by gender specific factors in medieval society even when they attempt to transcend gender related limitations through spiritual development.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu makalede Margery Kempe'in Kitabı'nda Margery Kempe'in Ortaçağ kadın hacıların sosyal cinsel kimliklerine bağlı olarak yaşadıkları zorluklar ve tehlikeler hakkında bilgi verdiği tartışılmaktadır. Margery Kempe kadın hacıları tehdit eden en büyük tehlike olarak tecavüzü gösterir. Tecavüz kadın hacıların karşılaştığı en önemli tehlike olarak Ortaçağ kadınlarının ruhsal ve dini gelişme yoluyla sosyal cinsiyetin getirdiği kısıtlamalardan kurtulma çabalarını da etkiler ve toplumda kadın olmalarından kaynaklanan zorluklara işaret eder.
