Friendship and Rhetoric in the Middle Ages: The Linguistic
Performance of Intimacy from Cicero to Aelred covers approximately
1,200 years of literature. This is a book on "medieval literature"
that foregrounds language as the agent for cultivating medieval
friendship (from the first century BC to c. 1160 AD) in oratorical,
ecclesiastical, monastic, and erotic contexts. Taking a different
approach than many works in this area, which search for the lived
experience of friends behind language, this book stands apart in
looking at friendship's enactment through rhetorical language among
classical and medieval authors.
