Book Synopsis Rethinking the "Romance of the Rose" by : Kevin Brownlee
Download or read book Rethinking the "Romance of the Rose" written by Kevin Brownlee and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Romance of the Rose has been a controversial text since it was written in the thirteenth century. There is evidence for radically different readings as as early as the first half of the fourteenth century. The text provided inspiration for both courtly and didactic poets. Some read it as a celebration of human love; others as an erudite philosophical work; still others as a satirical representation of social and sexual follies. On one hand it was praised as an edifying treatise, on the other condemned as lascivious and misogynistic. Kevin Brownlee and Sylvia Huot and the contributors to this volume—Pierre-Yves Badel, Emmanuele Baumgartner, John V. Fleming, Robert Pogue Harrison, David F. Hult, Stephen G. Nichols, Lee Patterson, Daniel Poirion, Karl D. Uitti, Dieuwke E. van der Poel, and Lori Walters—represent all the major areas of current work on the Romance of the Rose, both in American and in Europe. The volume will be of value to students and scholars of medieval literature, intellectual history, and art history.

Book Synopsis The Lettered Knight by : Martin Aurell
Download or read book The Lettered Knight written by Martin Aurell and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An encounter between a warring knight and the world of learning could seem a paradox. It is nonetheless related with the Twelfth-Century Renaissance, an essential intellectual movement for western history. Knights not only fought in battles, but also moved in sophisticated courts. Knights were interested in Latin classics, and reading and writing poetry. Supportive of ?jongleurs? and minstrels, they enjoyed literary conversations with clerics who would attempt to reform their behaviour, which was often brutal. These lettered warriors, while improving their culture, learned to repress their own violence and were initiated to courtesy: selective language, measured gestures, elegance in dress, and manners at the table. Their association with women, who were often learned, became more gallant. A revolution of thought occurred among lay elites who, in contact with clergy, began to use their weapons for common welfare. This new conduct was a tangible sign of Medievalist society?s leap forward towards modernity. This monograph contains a great deal of detailed information about the attitudes towards learning and written culture among members of the nobility in different parts of Europe in the Middle Ages.

Book Synopsis The Romance of Flamenca by : E. D. Blodgett
Download or read book The Romance of Flamenca written by E. D. Blodgett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Variously described as a comedy of manners, a psychological romance, and a type of fabliau, the 13th-century narrative Flamenca is the best medieval romance written in Occitan. Its uniqueness springs from qualities that anticipate the preoccupations of modern-day narrative. Not content with being a love story fraught with risk and intrigue, the poem is layered with responses to the troubadour tradition of love and poetry, as well as the Bible and the classics. Though among the most bookish of romances, its tone is invariably ironic, comic, and satirical. This playfulness may be measured by the variety and vehemence of critical response to the poem. Is it a vindication of the troubadour ideal, a mockery of the Church, a satire on jealous husbands, or an undermining of the ideals that romance is said to inscribe? Or is it all of these elements held in suspense? The introduction confronts these questions. The most recent edition and translation of Flamenca , by Hubert and Porter, is now out of print; their translation was into octosyllabic couplets that match the original. Blodgett's translation is unrhymed and line-for-line, on pages facing the edition; it adhers as closely as possible to the literal meaning of the original. The edition follows the recent text prepared by Gschwind.

Book Synopsis «Le Bel Inconnu» de Renaut de Beaujeu : rite, mythe et roman by : Philippe Walter
Download or read book «Le Bel Inconnu» de Renaut de Beaujeu : rite, mythe et roman written by Philippe Walter and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1996-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Le bel inconnu », écrit par Renaut de Beaujeu vers la fin du XIIe ou au début du XIIIe siècle, offre un superbe exemple de roman mythologique. Sous le décor romanesque arthurien, transparaît la mémoire des mythes archaïques de l'Europe préchrétienne. La thématique de ce roman peut s'expliquer par quelques rites et croyances du folklore médiéval, mais aussi à travers de grands thèmes de la mythologie celtique. « Le bel inconnu » raconte l'initiation d'un enfant-roi à la souveraineté et à l'amour. Sur un itinéraire parsemé d'épreuves héroïques, se dressent les figures rituelles du géant-ogre, du monstre tricéphale, du chien caniculaire ou de la fée-sirène, mais aussi celles - plus inattendues - des enchanteurs pourrissants et de la vouivre, dont les lèvres fatales dispenseront le fier baiser. Un voyage dans les littératures celtiques (irlandaise et galloise) et dans les contes, rites et croyances du folklore - médiéval ou moderne - permet d'envisager le merveilleux arthurien dans sa logique rigoureusement et mythologiquement poétique.
