Bestsellers and masterpieces: The changing medieval canon addresses
the strange fact that, in both European and Middle Eastern medieval
studies, those texts that we now study and teach as the most
canonical representations of their era were in fact not popular or
even widely read in their day. On the other hand, those texts that
were popular, as evidenced by the extant manuscript record, are
taught and studied with far less frequency. The book provides
cross-cultural insight into both the literary tastes of the
medieval period and the literary and political forces behind the
creation of the 'modern canon' of medieval literature. -- .
