Jean Froissart and the Fabric of History: Truth, Myth, and Fiction in the Chroniques

Jean Froissart and the Fabric of History: Truth, Myth, and Fiction in the Chroniques This study argues that the strength of Froissarts Chroniques lies as much in their textual richness and complexity as in their subject matter. Part one of the book examines medieval attitudes towards writing history, while the second part comprises a close-reading of texts from the Chroniques. Autor: Peter F.
