Of Giants
By: Cohen, Jeffrey Jerome
Published by: University of Minnesota Press
A monster lurks at the heart of medieval identity, and this book seeks him out. Reading a set of medieval texts in which giants and dismemberment figure prominently, Jeffrey Jerome Cohen brings a critical psychoanalytic perspective to bear on the question of identity formation—particularly masculine identity—in narrative representation. This is a compelling inquiry into the phenomenon of giants and giant-slaying in various texts from the Anglo-Saxon period to late Middle English, including Beowulf, several works by Chaucer, and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

Schrift Und Liebe In Der Kultur Des Mittelalters
By: Schnyder, Mireille (ed.)
Published by: Walter de Gruyter
Despite some tendencies in more recent research, there is still a need for a close linking of research in the history of emotionality with questions in media theory. This is the starting point for the present volume, which enquires into the effects on contemporary concepts of love of the "scriptorality" of European culture in the period from the 11th to 15th centuries. The various papers on medieval Latin, German and Italian literature focus not only on the materiality and pragmatics of the medium, but also the concept of mediality and the written tradition.
