Opis

Popular romance was one of the most wide-spread forms of literature in the middle ages, yet despite its cultural centrality, and its fundamental importance for later literary developments, the genre has defied precise definition, its subject matter ranging from tales of chivalric adventure, to saintly women, and monsters who become human. The essays in this collection seek to provide an inclusive and thorough examination of romance. They provide contexts, definitions, and explanations for the genre, particularly in, but not limited to, an English context. Topics covered include genre and literary classification; race and ethnicity; gender; orality and performance; the romance and young readers; metre and form; printing culture; and, reception. Contributors of this title include: Rosalind Field, Raluca L. Radulescu, Maldwyn Mills, Gillian Rogers, Jennifer Fellows, Thomas H. Crofts, Robert Allen Rouse, Joanne Charbonneau, Desiree Cromwell, Ad Putter, Karl Reichl, Phillipa Hardman, and Cory James Rushton.
