The introductory tribute to Mahoney (emeritus, Arizona State U.) describes her scholarly career as well as her profound influence on students, and the subsequent 13 contributed chapters carry forward some of her interests. The first three chapters address rhetoric and ethics in Middle English romance, Jans der Enikel's prologue as a guide to textual multiplicity, and pictures of gifts and givers in early medieval manuscripts. Following are studies pertaining to women and rhetoric (e.g. Margery Kempe and Christine de Pizan, and John Lydgate's Life of Our Lady); lyric, song, and audience; and composition and production of Arthurian literature.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. This volume honours the academic career of Professor Dhira B. Mahoney, recently retired from the Department of English at Arizona State University, who is well known for her rhetorical readings of medieval literature. Professor Mahoney's scholarship employs rhetorical theory in readings of late medieval literature, particularly prologues and epilogues, women's writings, and Arthuriana. As a response to her work, Romance and Rhetoric offers rhetorical readings of a variety of literary pieces from the late Middle Ages, especially for those authors and genres on which Professor Mahoney has published. Its collected essays provide interdisciplinary studies of art, social and literary history, manuscript transmission, and women's studies in relation to texts in Middle English, Latin, German, and French. In particular, the essays in this volume focus on the writings of courtly authors such as Chaucer, Lydgate, Malory, Guillaume de Machaut, Christine de Pizan, Chretien de Troyes, and others. In keeping with the ancient tradition of analysing rhetorical principles in the structure of an art work, they also examine the rhetoric of the manuscript art connected to these authors and the genres in which they wrote. This volume thus fills a gap in medieval literary scholarship, as it evaluates with scrutiny how rhetorical teachings or medieval poetic strategies inform the writing of romances. Reflecting the work of Dhira B. Mahoney, in whose honour this book is published, these essays discuss the intersections between medieval rhetoric and various sorts of medieval literature, with particular focus on romance.
