Essays on Ricardian Literature - In Honour of J.a. Burrow

Zusatztext the book is well conceived! in a way fetschriften often are not! and executed with a high level of scholarly and critical acumen. This collection of papers does a good deal by itself and should have the effect of stimulating more such work! towards realizing the project John Burrow conceived in Ricardian Poetry: 'a truly synoptic view' of Ricardian culture. Zusammenfassung This work develops issues and themes broached in John Burrow's book "Ricardian Poetry". It explores the status of Anglo-Latin, and the influence of French culture on the Ricardian court, as well as offering re-readings of more familiar works, such as "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight".
