Klappentext zu „Literary "objets d'art" “
The genesis of this book was the coincidence of two readings: Virgil's Aeneid and Dante's Purgatorio . Each work includes descriptions of art objects, Daedalus' and God's artwork respectively. These descriptions, or ekphraseis , also occur frequently in Old French romances. Too long considered as embellishment or artistic virtuosity, they have received little rigorous critical attention. This book offers a step in that direction by analyzing the narrative significance of art objects in three very different works: the anonymous Eneas , Chrétien de Troyes' Erec et Enide , and Jean Renart's Escoufle . Along with intertextuality and mise en abyme, ekphrasis opens new avenues for interpreting this literature.
