Striking cultural developments took place in the twelfth century
which led to what historians have termed 'the emergence of the
individual.' The Medieval Fold demonstrates how cultural
developments typically associated with this twelfth-century
renaissance autobiography, lyric, courtly love, romance can be
traced to the Church's cultivation of individualism. However,
subjects did not submit to pastoral power passively, they
constructed fantasies and behaviors, redeploying or 'folding' it to
create new forms of life and culture. Incorporating the work of
Nietzsche, Foucault, Lacan, and Deleuze, Suzanne Verderber presents
a model of the subject in which the opposition between interior
self and external world is dislodged.
