The Late Medieval Origins of the Modern Novel

Rachel A. Kent, "The Late Medieval Origins of the Modern Novel"
2014 | pages: 278 | ISBN: 1349576190 | PDF | 2,0 mb

Dramatically refreshing the age-old debate about the novel's origins and purpose, Kent traces the origin of the modern novel to a late medieval fascination with the wounded, and often eroticized, body of Christ. A wide range of texts help to illustrate this discovery, ranging from medieval 'Pietàs' to Thomas Hardy to contemporary literary theory.
