Zusammenfassung: | Little attention has been paid to the political and ideological significance of the exemplum, a brief narrative form used to illustrate a moral. Through a study of four major works in the Chaucerian tradition (The Canterbury Tales, John Gower's Confessio Amantis, Thomas Hoccleve's Regement of Princes, and Lydgate's Fall of Princes), Scanlon redefines the exemplum as a 'narrative enactment of cultural authority'. He traces its development through the two strands of the medieval Latin tradition which the Chaucerians appropriate: the sermon exemplum, and the public exemplum of the Mirrors of Princes. In so doing, he reveals how Chaucer and his successors used these two forms of exemplum to explore the differences between clerical authority and lay power, and to establish the moral and cultural authority of their emergent vernacular tradition |

Through a study of four major works in the Chaucerian tradition (The Canterbury Tales, John Gower's Confessio Amantis, Thomas Hoccleve's Regement of Princes, and Lydgate's Fall of Princes), Scanlon redefines the exemplum as a 'narrative enactment of cultural authority'. He traces its development through the two strands of the medieval Latin tradition which the Chaucerians appropriate: the sermon exemplum, and the public exemplum of the Mirrors of Princes. In so doing, he reveals how Chaucer and his successors used these two forms of exemplum to explore the differences between clerical authority and lay power, and to establish the moral and cultural authority of their emergent vernacular tradition Chaucer, Geoffrey / -1400 / Knowledge / Literature Chaucer, Geoffrey 1343-1400 (DE-588)118520245 gnd rswk-swf Gower, John 1330-1408 Confessio amantis (DE-588)4229297-9 gnd rswk-swf Chaucer, Geoffrey 1343-1400 The Canterbury tales (DE-588)4135927-6 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Literatur Wissen English poetry / Middle English, 1100-1500 / History and criticism Didactic literature, Latin (Medieval and modern) / History and criticism Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) / History / To 1500 Narration (Rhetoric) / History / To 1500 Power (Social sciences) in literature Authority in literature Exempla in literature Rhetoric, Medieval Lyrik (DE-588)4036774-5 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 gnd rswk-swf Exempel (DE-588)4153302-1 gnd rswk-swf Mittelenglisch (DE-588)4039676-9 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content Mittelenglisch (DE-588)4039676-9 s Lyrik (DE-588)4036774-5 s Exempel (DE-588)4153302-1 s Geschichte (DE-588)4020517-4 s 2\p DE-604 Gower, John 1330-1408 Confessio amantis (DE-588)4229297-9 u 3\p DE-604 Chaucer, Geoffrey 1343-1400 (DE-588)118520245 p 4\p DE-604 Chaucer, Geoffrey 1343-1400 The Canterbury tales (DE-588)4135927-6 u 5\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-04425-7 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-43210-8 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511553011 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
