Machaut's Legacy: The Judgment Poetry Tradition in the Later Middle Ages and Beyond
In a daring rewrite of literary history, this volume argues that the medieval poet and musician Guillaume de Machaut was the major influence in narrative craft during the late Middle Ages and long after. Examining Machaut's series of debate poems, contributors highlight the genre's authorial self-consciousness, polyvocality, and ambiguity of judgment.
