Annual collection of essays on diverse aspects of the fifteenth
century, this year emphasizing topics in medieval literature. 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 38 addresses a broad spectrum of topics:
monastic reformation of domestic space in Richard Whitford's Werke
for Housholders; Margery Kempe and spectatorship in medieval drama;
The Book of Margery Kempe and the trial of Joan of Arc; a new
edition and interpretations of The Book of the Duke and Emperor in
the context of MS Manchester, Chetham's Library 8009 (Mun. A.6.31);
two cultural perspectives on the Battle of Lippa, Transylvania
(1551); translation and manipulation of audience expectations in
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight; the dry tree legend in medieval
literature; and Wessel Gansfort, John Mombaer, and medieval
technologies of the self. Book reviews conclude the volume.
Contributors: Brandon Alakas, Maria Dobozy, Andrew Eichel, Rosanne
