Abstract:

Gábor Attila Csúr: “The Inclination to the Supernatural in the Middle Ages – A Critical Reading of Medieval Religiousness in Danish Historical Novels” The article focuses on Danish historical prose fiction from the last two centuries and analyzes how the phenomenon ‘medievalism’, i. e. the interpretation, reception and recreation of the Middle Age, has changed during this period. Stereotypes about medieval religious thought and belief and the role of the church have always been popular features of historical novels. By analyzing the depictions of religiousness, the article attempts to dr

La Crónica do Descobrimento do Brasil (1840) de F. A. de Varnhagen es estimada como uno de los textos fundadores de la narrativa de ficción brasileña. Este artículo argumenta que la Crónica fue redactada desde el horizonte del primer romanticismo portugués, bajo los supuestos del proyecto de re-figuración histórico-poética de fuentes medievales promovido por A. Herculano. Utilizando aportaciones de la teoría literaria sobre la novela histórica tradicional, se examinan las estrategias ficcionales que permitieron a Varnhagen apropiarse de la Carta a el-Rei D.

Abstract:

This article explores the medieval ‘everyday’ through archaeological, microhistorical and creative techniques. Following one day in the lives of a medieval lady of the manor and her family and servants in Faccombe Netherton, Hampshire, in 1198, the article uses excavation, material culture and contemporary texts to find the intersections between the quotidian and the extraordinary. As a result, we see lives of the less well-known in the period and explore the many lived experiences of a manor house. Ultimately the article weaves together the multiplicity of ‘everyday’ experiences and demonstra

Abstract:

Beginning in the 13th century, rivalry among Italian city-states intensified, transforming cultural competition into a strategic tool for asserting identity. Roman heritage was often contested, with cities emphasising their claims as the true heirs of Rome. Siena has faced criticism for its lack of major historical sites. In response, its municipal authorities and citizens developed the legends of the “she-wolf” and Saint Ansanus. These legends reinforced Siena’s urban identity through historical narratives and public art. During the Renaissance, Siena redefined its history to assert its legit

This article is a contribution to the currently expanding field of diachronic narratology, i.e. the research into possible historical and cultural changes in the practice of narration, more precisely the question of how far the various narratological categories (which as such can be considered to be universal) underlie changes in their practical application in different periods and cultures. This article focuses specifically on the narratological category of the event analyzing and comparing the practical realization of eventfulness in two periods within the history of English narrative fictio

Abstract:

This article reads the Youming lu ( Records of the Hidden and Visible Realms) as an epitome of the central tension in the tradition of ‘anomaly accounts’ ( zhiguai) between a desire for order and an openness to uncertainties. By conceptualizing the zhiguai as ‘early medieval Chinese Gothic’, this article attempts to disclose the contemporary significance of a premodern non-Anglo-European genre, as well as unbind the Gothic from cultural or socio-historical determinism. It attends to an ambivalent solicitude for the obscure embedded in the Youming lu’s iconic dynamic of light and darkness to th

Abstract:

Abstract This article examines Robyn Cadwallader’s 2015 novel The Anchoress as an interpretation of the early thirteenth-century saint’s life Seinte Margarete. The Anchoress is at once a scrupulously researched historical novel and what the author calls a “critical fiction,” that is, a work of fiction that undertakes the same analytical project as conventional literary criticism: it self-consciously interprets a narrative through its own narrative and investigates many of the same issues that are explored in more familiar forms of literary scholarship and cultural history.

This thesis concerns the function of fiction in the creation of an historical myth and the uses that that myth is put to in a number of periods and differing régimes. Its case study is the popular myth of August the Strong (1670-1733), Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, as a man of extraordinary sexual prowess and the ruler over a magnificent, but frivolous, court in Dresden. It examines the origins of this myth in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century, and its development up to the twenty-first century in German history writing, fiction, art, and media.

Medieval historical fiction is a popular genre in Spanish publishing. This essay interrogates the popularity of these novels, and explores the possible theoretical frameworks for understanding its contribution to Spanish cultural identity. It traces the rise of medieval historical fiction set in the “España de las Tres Culturas” from the early 1990s, with particular reference to 1992’s Quincentennial commemorations. Furthermore, the subject matter of these novels (convivencia between ethno-religious communities) links it to modern social and political issues – Islamic immigration, terrorism, c

Examining works spanning the centuries from Geoffrey of Monmouth and Wace to the late thirteenth-century Claris et Laris, the study traces the tale of Merlin’s origins along with the story of Arthur’s conception. Whether the texts treat the material directly or indirectly through allusions, they all elicit questions concerning the relationship between history and fable, truth and lies.

Even though many people consider literature simply as a medium for entertainment, we can easily recognize its much more powerful relevance for human existence. Within a fictional framework, all the critical issues in human life, such as vices and virtues, communication and miscommunication, love, the concept of death, of God, the issues of hatred and violence, have been explored throughout time. A good literary text thus proves its quality and value when the reader/listener is empowered to reflect on fundamental concerns affecting all of us.
