Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the intricate relationship between historical and literary texts, Paul Strohm's seven essays delve into fourteenth-century England, revealing the fictionality inherent in both narrative and documentary sources. He argues that these fictions hold historical significance, prompting a dialogue that situates texts within their broader contexts. By analyzing legal records and works by Chaucer and Froissart, Strohm highlights the complexities of language and social dynamics, ultimately challenging traditional distinctions between "invented" and "true" narratives.
