  • French: From Dialect to Standard

    par R. Anthony Lodge ...

French is one of the most highly standardized of the world's languages and the author invites us to see the language as heterogenous, rather than a monolithic entity, using the model proposed by E. ...

  • Paratexts

    Thresholds of Interpretation

    par Gerard Genette ...
    Traduit par Jane E. Lewin ...
    Collections Livre 20 - Literature, Culture, Theory
    Paratexts are those liminal devices and conventions, both within and outside the book, that form part of the complex mediation between book, author, publisher and reader: titles, forewords, epigraphs and publishers' jacket copy are part of a book's private and public history. In this first English translation of Paratexts, Gérard Genette shows how the special pragmatic status of paratextual ... En savoir plus

  • Knowing Poetry

    Verse in Medieval France from the "Rose" to the "Rhétoriqueurs"

    par Adrian Armstrong, Sarah Kay ...
    In the later Middle Ages, many writers claimed that prose is superior to verse as a vehicle of knowledge because it presents the truth in an unvarnished form, without the distortions of meter and rhyme. Beginning in the thirteenth century, works of verse narrative from the early Middle Ages were recast in prose, as if prose had become the literary norm. Instead of dying out, however, verse took on ... En savoir plus

    par Allison Stedman ...
    Collections series Transits: Literature, Thought & Culture, 1650–1850
    Rococo Fiction in France reconfigures the history of the “long eighteenth century” by revealing the rococo as a literary phenomenon that characterized a range of experimental texts from the end of the French Renaissance to the eve of the French Revolution.

  • The Oxford Handbook of Montaigne

    Modifié par Philippe Desan ...
    Collections series Oxford Handbooks
    In 1580, Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) published a book unique by its title and its content: Essays"R. A literary genre was born. At first sight, the Essays resemble a patchwork of personal reflections, but they engage with questions that animate the human mind, and tend toward a single goal: to live better in the present and to prepare for death. For this reason, Montaigne's thought and ... En savoir plus

  • Controlling Readers

    Guillaume de Machaut and His Late Medieval Audience

    par Deborah L. McGrady ...
    Guillaume de Machaut (1300-1377) was the master poet of fourteenth-century France. He established models for much of the vernacular poetry written by subsequent generations, and he was instrumental in institutionalizing the lay reader. In particular, his longest and most important work, the Voir dit, calls attention to the coexistence of public and private reading practices through its intensely ... En savoir plus

  • Where is Medieval Philosophy going?

    Inaugural Lecture delivered on Thursday 13 February 2014

    par Alain de Libera ...
    Collections series Leçons inaugurales
    Where is medieval philosophy going? It is going to where philosophy is. And it is there where philosophy is going. It became medieval once the Middle Ages were over. It was only philosophy when the Middle Ages were still saeculum modernorum, the “century of the Moderns”, for those living in it. Today, it is going there where she or he who wants to recount, that is, to relate its history, must go. ... En savoir plus
