This admission is often followed by narratives that directly contradict it, as speakers, such as the Reeve in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales or Amans in Gower's Confessio Amantis, proceed to perform even as they claim debility. More than the modesty topos, this contradiction exists, the book argues, as prosthesis: old age brings with it debility, but discussing age-related impairments augments the old, impaired body, while simultaneously undercutting and emphasizing bodily impairments. This language of prosthesis becomes a metaphor for the works these speakers use to fashion narrative, which exist as incomplete yet powerful sources.Borderlines (Leeds, England)English literatureMiddle English, 1100-1500History and criticismOld age in literatureCaxton.Chaucer.Disability.Hamlet.Hoccleve.John Gower.Middle English literature.Polonius.prosthesis.rhetoric.English literatureHistory and criticism.Old age in literature.820.9352460902 Rogers Will1690170UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910816639203321Writing old age and impairments in late Medieval England4065732UNINA02165nam0 22004093i 450 CFI020262620251003044134.0882046773920120112d1991 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01nItaltelle relazioni industriali dal '69 agli anni '80A.
