Zustand: Sehr gut. XIV, 304 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Overall very good and clean. - This wide-ranging study of language and cultural change in fourteenth-century England argues that the influence of oral tradition is m…uch more important to the advance of literacy than scholarship has previously recognized. In contrast to the view of orality and literacy as contending forces of opposition, the book maintains that the power of language consists in displacement, the capacity of one channel of language to take the place of the other, to make the source disappear into the copy. Appreciating the interplay between oral and written language makes possible for the first time a way of understanding the high literate achievements of this century in relation to momentous developments in social and political life. Part I reassesses the nominalism of Ockham and the realism of Wyclif through discussions of their major treatises on language and government. Part II argues that the chronicle histories written during this century are tied directly to oral customs and that their mode of historical representation betokens the nostalgic feudalism of Edward III and Richard II. Part III shows how Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Chaucers Knight's Tale confront the displacement of language outright as a mechanism of dominion in court, parliament, church, and the schools. Informed by recent discussions in critical theory, philosophy, and anthropology, the book offers a new synoptic view of fourteenth-century culture and a unique methodology for interdisciplinary studies. As a critique of the social context of medieval literacy, it speaks directly to postmodern debate about the politics of historicism today. - Jesse M.
