Irony in the Medieval Romance Green Hardback Cambridge University Press
Irony in the Medieval RomanceAuthor(s): Dennis Howard Green\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Cambridge University Press\nISBN-13: 9780521224581, 978-0521224581\nSynopsis\nDespite the fashionable standing of irony in studies of modern literature and its occasional application to medieval studies in a number of recent works, no sustained analysis of this phenomenon has yet been attempted for medieval literature. Professor Green attempts to fill the most important part of this lacuna by discussing irony in the medieval genre in which it is employed most frequently and with the greatest sophistication, the romance. The approach is therefore directed more towards the genre as such than to any specific example, and, although the book is written primarily from a Germanist's point of view, it also takes into account the romances of Chrtien de Troyes and their German adaptations, various examples from the Tristan tradition in France and German.
