Neighboring Text

Více o knize

Exploring the nature of medieval texts, this work challenges the traditional linear approach to literary history by examining how manuscripts functioned as compilations of diverse writings. The author, George Edmondson, integrates insights from psychoanalysis and political philosophy to propose a horizontal model of "neighborliness," highlighting the interconnectedness of texts and their cultural contexts. This fresh perspective redefines our understanding of late medieval literature and its transmission, emphasizing the collaborative and communal aspects of textual production.
