Annual collection on diverse aspects of the fifteenth century,
emphasizing literary topics with essays on French, German, English,
Gaelic, and Middle Scots. The fifteenth century defies consensus on
fundamental issues; most scholars agree, however, that the period
outgrew the Middle Ages, that it was a time of transition and a
passage to modern times. Fifteenth-Century Studiesoffers essays on
diverse aspects of the period, including liberal and fine arts,
historiography, medicine, and religion. Volume 37 includes articles
on Rene d'Anjou and authorial doubling in the Livre du Coeur
d'Amour epris; tradition and innovation in popular German song
poetry from Oswald von Wolkenstein to Georg Forster; the role of
sacred images in Capgrave's Life of Saint Katherine; milieu, John
Strecche, and the Gawain-poet; Gaelic, Middle Scots, and the
question of ethnicity in three Scottish flytings; William Caxton's
translations of Aesop; the visualization of information in Conrad
Buitzruss's compendium; and Gilles de Rais and his modern
apologists. Book reviews conclude the volume. Contributors:
