Memory and Confession in Middle English Literature

This book argues that the traditional relationship between the act of confessing and the act of remembering is manifested through the widespread juxtaposition of confession and memory in Middle English literary texts and, furthermore, that this concept permeates other manifestations of memory as written by authors in a variety of genres.

Aceasta carte sustine ca relatia traditionala dintre actul marturisirii si actul amintirii se manifesta prin juxtapunerea pe scara larga a marturisirii si memoriei in textele literare din limba engleza mijlocie si, in plus, ca acest concept patrunde in alte manifestari ale memoriei scrise de autori intr-un varietate de genuri.
