Courtly Contradictions: The Emergence of the Literary Object in the Twelfth Century - Figurae: Reading Medieval Culture
Sarah Kay
Where does courtly literature come from? What is the meaning of courtly love? What is the relation between religious and secular culture in the Middle Ages, and why does it matter? This book addresses these questions by way of contradiction, which is central both to medieval logic and to most modern protocols of reading.
