Essays studying the relationship between literariness and form in
medieval texts. The twenty-first century has witnessed the
re-emergence of various kinds of literary formalism, and one
project that characterizes most of these diverse formalisms is the
effort to distinguish what is precisely literary about their
objects of study. The presumed relation between form and the
literary that this project presupposes, however, raises questions
that still need to be addressed. What is it about form that
produces the category of the literary? What precisely is literary
about literary form? Can the literary be defined beyond form? This
volume explores these questions in the historical and geographical
frame of late medieval Britain, across vaunted literary works such
as the Franklin's Tale, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and the
Towneley Shepherds' Plays, and presumed "non-literary" texts, such
as books of hours. By studying texts from a period long priorto
literary formalism - indeed, before any fully articulated theory of
the literary - the essays gathered here aim to rethink the
relationship between form and the literary. Robert J. Meyer-Lee is
