"Original, courageous, and exemplary. . . . This will prove to be
one of the most significant and energizing works of recent
decades."--David Wallace, editor of "The Cambridge History of
Medieval English Literature
"A thoroughly accomplished and groundbreaking piece of
historicist medievalism, and a 'local' study that resonates in an
extraordinarily sensitive and promising way with problems that are
worrying and entrancing literary and cultural studies in general. .
. . Justice's work powerfully addresses issues that have emerged in
the controversies over essentialism and performativity in feminist
and ethnicity and queer theory, over alteritism and intimacy in
post-colonial theory, and over subversion and containment in new
historicism. . . . If "Writing and Rebellion were to do no more
than recharge the practice of medieval scholarship, draw attention
to the textuality of 1381, and establish the importance of 1381 to
Ricardian culture as a whole, thereby guiding us to a new reading
of that period, it would be a wonderful book; it does all these
things, but its implications go even farther. I hope it will be
read by many people in many fields thinking seriously about the
making of social and literary change."--Louise O. Fradenburg,
author of "City, Marriage, Tournament: Arts of Rule in Late
Medieval Scotland
