More about the book
The book explores the emergence of subjective autobiographical expression in twelfth-century Latin and vernacular texts. It delves into intricate relationships between subject and object, self and body, and text and language. The author argues that the development of the self in medieval literature was influenced by the divide between Latin and vernacular languages, as well as a significant shift toward visual and spatial perspectives during this period.
