Inscription And Erasure : Literature And Written Culture From The Eleventh To The Eighteenth Century

  • Inscription And Erasure : Literature And Written Culture From The Eleventh To The Eighteenth Century

  • Attribution

    Roger Chartier ; translated by Arthur Goldhammer

  • Publication Details

    Book, University of Pennsylvania Press, 2007

  • Description

    indeed, much was written on surfaces that allowed one to write, erase, then write again. Chartier examines how authors transformed the material realities of writing and publication into an aesthetic resource exploited for poetic, dramatic, or narrative ends. Chartier’s chapters follow a thread of reading and interpretation that takes us from the twelfth-century French poet Baudri of Bourgueil, sketching out his poems on wax tablets before they are committed to parchment, through Cervantes in the seventeenth century, who places a “book of memory,” in which poems and letters are to be recopied, in the path of his fictional Don Quixote.

  • Attribution

    John Dagenais

  • Publication Details

    Book, Princeton University Press, 1994

  • Description

    Exploring the margins of the manuscripts of the Libro and of other Iberian works, Dagenais reveals how medieval readers continually reshaped their texts, both physically and ethically as they read, and argues that the context of medieval manuscript culture forces us to reconsider such comfortable received notions as “text” and “literature” and the theories we have based upon them.
