Verse in Medieval France from the "Rose" to the "Rhétoriqueurs"

de Adrian Armstrong, Sarah Kay ...

In the later Middle Ages, many writers claimed that prose is superior to verse as a vehicle of knowledge because it presents the truth in an unvarnished form, without the distortions of meter and rhyme. Beginning in the thirteenth century, works of verse narrative from the early Middle Ages were recast in prose, as if prose had become the literary norm. Instead of dying out, however, verse took on ... Leer más
