Jean Froissart and the Fabric of History
Author: Peter F. Ainsworth
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781383006605
Category : Europe
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This study argues that the strength of Froissart's "Chroniques" lies as much in their textual richness and complexity as in their subject matter. Part one of the book examines medieval attitudes towards writing history, while the second part comprises a close-reading of texts from the "Chroniques".
