Textual Traditions and Medieval Literary Culture
Author: Noëlle Phillips
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 1843846985
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Essays illuminating how medieval cultures and identities have influenced later authors, texts, and communities. How did medieval literary cultures shape, and how were they shaped by, their received textual traditions? And how have cultures continued to respond to the inherited medieval tradition in later eras? This volume explores these important questions, considering how language and literature mediate the narration of history or culture - especially the culture and identity of Britain. In addressing the overarching concern of the conception of the past in the literatures of medieval Britain, and the later reception of medieval texts, the contributors' essays respond to the diverse areas of medieval studies upon which Professor Echard's work has had significant influence. They address, amongst other subjects, Arthuriana and "Matter of Britain" texts, the literary interrelationships between medieval Wales and England, medieval adaptations and interpretations of texts from classical antiquity, the poet John Gower, and medievalism in later centuries. As Professor Echard has consistently demonstrated in these fields, and as these essays overwhelmingly confirm, the past is rarely, if ever, represented at face value in the cultural products that lay claim to it.

Chaucer's Queens
Author: Louise Tingle
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030632199
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This book investigates the agency and influence of medieval queens in late fourteenth-century England, focusing on the patronage and intercessory activities of the queens Philippa of Hainault and Anne of Bohemia, as well as the princess Joan of Kent. It examines the ways in which royal women were able to participate in traditional queenly customs such as intercession, and whether it was motherhood that gave power to a queen. This study focuses particularly on types of patronage, and also considers the importance of coronation, especially for Joan of Kent, who was neither a queen consort nor a dowager, yet still fulfilled some queenly duties. Crucially, the author highlights the transactional nature of the queen’s role at court, as she accumulated wealth from land, rights and traditions, which in turn funded patronage activities.
