内容説明

A stimulating volume of essays from the 1990 Bennett Memorial Lectures in Perugia. There is an emphasis on Chaucer but other papers include material for Arthurians (is there a `basic' English Arthurian verse romance?); and the Christian version of the Platonic ideal in Pearl. A discussion of the interaction of poetic and civil authority in poets from Chaucer to Spenser completes the collection. Contributors: COOPER, EDWARDS, FICHTE, KOLVE,MANN, MERTENS-FONCK,MINNIS, OWEN Jr, TAYLOR, VANCE, WALLACE.
