AUTHOR
SUMMARY
This comparative study examines Floire and Blancheflor and shows how medieval writers from Spa in, France, Italy, England, and Scandinavia reworked this story from the twelfth through the sixteenth centuries to develop and emphasise social, political, religious and artistic goals. It shows the influence of a little-known medieval Spanish version, especially as a precursor to Boccaccio's Il Filocolo, and to examine important issues of the development of prose fiction in medieval and Renaissance Europe.Grieve, Patricia E. is the author of ''Floire and Blancheflor' and the European Romance', published 2006 under ISBN 9780521027670 and ISBN 0521027675.
