This study, through the framework of confession, identifies moments of recollection within the texts of four major Middle English authors – Langland, Chaucer, Gower, and the Gawain-Poet – and demonstrates that these authors deliberately employed the devices of recollection and forgetfulness in order to indicate changes or the lack thereof, both in conduct and in mindset, in their narrative subjects. .. .Memory and Confession in Middle English Literature .explores memory’s connection to confession along with the recurring textual awareness of confession’s ability to transform the soul; demonstrating that memory and recollectionis used in medieval literature to emphasize emotional and behavioral change. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Middle English; Medieval Literature; Langland; Chaucer; Memory Studies; British and Irish Literature | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-55675-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-85723-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-55675-8Series ISSN 2945-5936 Series E-ISSN 2945-5944 | | issn_series | 2945-5936 | | copyright | The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nat |
