Reassessing The Heroine In Medieval French Literature,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
These innovative essays are outstanding because they examine wellknown works and genres in new ways, and they revise and revitalize our thinking about them.'Rupert T. Pickens, University of KentuckyThese essays explore the various manifestations of the heroine in medieval French literature and her multiple relationships with discourse, both medieval and modern. From a discussion of 12thcentury saints lives to an examination of 15thcentury farce, they span the Middle Ages, both chronologically and generically. Focused yet considering a wide range of texts, they shine new light on the heroine and how she behaves, including how she herself uses discourse.ContentsIntroduction, by Kathy M. KrausePart I.
