More about the book

Exploring the theme of identity, this collection delves into how Middle English romances reflect cultural and religious uncertainties amid political turmoil and social change. The narratives interrogate what it means to be English, Christian, or part of the nobility, often through encounters with the Saracens, which symbolize the "Other." These romances range from crusade tales to Arthurian legends, revealing the complexities of identity formation in a time marked by conflict and upheaval.
