Medievalia Et Humanistica No. 32: Studies in Medieval and Renaissance Cultureby Paul Maurice Clogan
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Since its founding in 1943, Medievalia et Humanistica has won worldwide recognition as the first scholarly publication in America to devote itself entirely to medieval and Renaissance studies. Since 1970, a new series, sponsored by the Modern Language Association of America and edited by an international board of distinguished scholars and critics, has published interdisciplinary articles. In yearly hardcover volumes, the new series publishes significant scholarship, criticism, and reviews treating all facets of medieval and Renaissance culture: history, art, literature, music, science, law, economics, and philosophy. Book News Annotation:Nine articles grace this latest in the venerable series, which
through various transformations traces back to 1943. They include
discussions of Gregorian chant in Spain; truth-telling and satire in
the trial of Renard; Fauvel's wayward wives; and physiognomy, social
class, and fantasy in The Wife of Bath's Prologue and Tale. A review
article looks at two new studies of Medieval spirituality, and eight
recent books are briefly reviewed. No index is provided.
