Shaping Identity in Medieval French Literature: The Other Within Tudor Adrian P.
This collection considers the multiplicity and instability of medieval French literary identity, arguing that it is fluid and represented in numerous ways. Contributors examine the complexity of the notion of self through a wide range of lenses, from marginal characters to gender to questions of voice and naming. The works analyzed span genres--epic, romance, lyric poetry, hagiography, fabliaux--and historical periods from the twelfth century to the late Middle Ages.
They explore the complex interactions between and among individuals and groups, and demonstrate how identity can be imposed and self-imposed not only by characters but by Studying a variety of texts--including Conte du Graal, Roman de la Rose, Huon de Bordeaux, and the Oxford Roland--they conceptualize the Other Within as an individual who simultaneously exists within a group while remaining foreign to it.
