Survey articles and fresh readings of the Libro.
Este nuevo volumen ofrece ensayos de especialistas anglofonos sobre el Libro de Buen Amor, obra monumental del siglo XIV. El volumen responde a la necesidad de un enfoque actualizado que examina el estado de las cuestionesprincipales (como son la de la autoria y su contexto, la metrica, las tradiciones manuscrita e impresa, el uso de exempla y proverbios, y las aproximaciones teoricas al Libro) y sus implicaciones para una lectura delLibro. Ademas aporta dos estudios de uno de los episodios principales (el encuentro del arcipreste con Don Amor hasta la muerte de Dona Endrina). Se explora tambien la estructura de la obra juanruizana como un texto pre-novelistico en el sentido bajtiniano y desde la teoria del caos.
Contribuyen: Laurence de Looze, Alan Deyermond, Martin Duffell, Elizabeth Drayson, Jeremy Lawrance, Dorothy S. Severin, Barry Taylor, y los editores.
