Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on adventure and love in the European Middle Ages, this study examines poetry from notable authors like Marie de France and Chrétien de Troyes. Will Hasty applies a sociological lens, utilizing game theory to explore how a society rooted in sacrifice evolved into one centered on wagers and investments. The analysis highlights how characters' identities and happiness hinge on uncertain outcomes, drawing connections to a wide range of historical texts that illustrate the development of a risk-reward society in medieval Europe.
