Book The Wandering Knight

Download or read book The Wandering Knight written by Jean de Cartigny and published by . This book was released on 1951 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean de Cartigny, a Flemish Carmelite monk, first published "Le Voyage du Chevalier errant" at Antwerp in 1557, and it soon enjoyed wide popularity. The first English translation, made by William Goodyear, edited by Robert Norman, and dedicated to Sir Francis Drake, was imprinted by Thomas East at London on May 27, 1581. The original text enjoyed great popularity and was translated into five languages. This book explores the story and its animating ideas with an eye to discerning its influence on subsequent works, its membership in the catalog of expressive literature emanating from the Catholic church, its place in the canon of chivalric romance and in English literary history. This edition of "The Wandering Knight" provides a text which can serve as a reference for those interested in the currents of continental and medieval ideas which flowed through England in the Renaissance, students of Edmund Spencer, and those concerned with the development of moral allegory.

Book Allegorical Quests from Deguileville to Spenser

Download or read book Allegorical Quests from Deguileville to Spenser written by Marco Nievergelt and published by DS Brewer. This book was released on 2012 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of sixteenth-century quest narratives, focussing on their conscious use of a medieval tradition to hold a mirror up to contemporary culture. Offers the first full study of the allegorical knightly quest tradition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. Richly satisfying, as impressive in the detail of its scholarship as in the elegance of its critical formulations. It seamlessly moves between different literary traditions and across conventional period boundaries. In Dr Nievergelt's treatment of this theme, the successive retellings of the tale of the knight's quest come to stand as an emblemof shifting values and norms, both religious and worldly; and of our repeated failures to realise those ideals. Dr Alex Davis, Department of English, University of St Andrews. The literary motif of the "allegorical knightly quest" appears repeatedly in the literature of the late medieval/early modern period, notably in Spenser, but has hitherto been little examined. Here, in his examination of a number of sixteenth-century English allegorical-chivalric quest narratives, focussing on Spenser's Faerie Queene but including important, lesser-known works such as Stephen Bateman's Travayled Pylgrime and William Goodyear's Voyage of the Wandering Knight, the author argues that the tradition begins with the French writer Guillaume de Deguileville. His seminal Pèlerinage de la vie humaine was composed c.1331-1355; it was widely adapted, translated, rewritten and printed overthe next centuries. Dr Nievergelt goes on to demonstrate how this essentially "medieval" literary form could be adapted to articulate reflections on changing patterns of identity, society and religion during the early modern period; and how it becomes a vehicle of self-exploration and self-fashioning during a period of profound cultural crisis. Dr Marco Nievergelt is Lecturer (Maître Assitant) and SNF (Swiss National Science Foundation) Research Fellow in the English Department at the Université de Lausanne
