• Extra informatie: - This volume examines the medieval arts of poetry and prose, focusing primarily on Latin treatises that systematized literary composition and rhetoric from classical antiquity through the Middle Ages. It highlights how these theoretical texts influenced poetic and prose writing across a wide range of European vernaculars, including Occitan, Italian, Catalan, Castilian Spanish, Galician Portuguese, French, Dutch and Flemish, German, English, Scandinavian, and Celtic languages. The study also explores the role of notable medieval thinkers such as Bernardus Silvestris, whose works bridged classical philosophy and medieval literary theory. With detailed analysis and an extended bibliography, this work illuminates the transmission, adaptation, and transformation of literary arts throughout medieval Europe’s diverse linguistic landscape.
