The essays in this collection celebrate the research and teaching
career of Dr ELSPETH KENNEDY (St Hilda's College, Oxford),
distinguished Arthurian and medievalist. Papers focus on the
processes of innovation and transformation and the relationship
between tradition and originality in medieval literature. They
consider shifts from one genre to another and their implications
for audience expectations; transpositions of a theme or story
within or between narratives; and the process of rewriting a work
in the same language. A variety of different approaches are used,
reflecting the latest research in, among others, gender studies,
generic intertextuality, translation theory, psychoanalysis, and
anthropology. Several literary genres are treated, and works in
different languages (Latin, Old and Middle French, Middle High
German, Old and Middle English) are examined.Contributors: KAREN
