Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket. First Edition. No d/w, outline of sticker on front cover, otherwise Fine. ; This book examines the significance of John Gower's re-creations of the cultural past in the Confessio Amantis through the stories and teachings of the confessor, Genius. Although the poem has many of the attributes of a compilation, Gower reforms material to create a range of `wise' responses to important moral questions, intended to sharpen his readers' judgment and nurture their capacity to deal with the uncertainties of the moral life. Olsson analyses the poet's conversions of old to new as an effort to inspire the moral renewal of the age. He contends that the poet sees the past as the key to the regeneration of the world. In this reading, the past, an ever-new and renewable repository of wisdom, also holds a promise for Amans, who learns that he is an old man unfit to serve in Venus's court. Thus the author perceives Gower to offer a strong, responsive and balanced moral vision to an age seemingly victimised by change. KURT OLSSON is Professor of English at the University of Idaho; this, his first book, was awarded the prestigious Fisher Prize. ; Publications of the John Gower Society; 9.75 x 1.25 x 6.5 Inches; 275 pages.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Every day is an anniversary of sorts, yet we choose to celebrate, memorialize, or mourn only a few. What about the other days of our lives, those that will never merit Silver, Gold, or Diamond, yet when added together-joy mingled with sorrow, heartbreak leavened by laughter-ultimately constitute this thing we call life These are The Unnumbered Anniversaries Kurt Olsson seeks to commemorate within these unflinching poems and pages.
