Lovers were rejected, mistrust ruled, rape was a rampant problem, and marriage was often characterized by brutality. Albrecht Classen brings together an outstanding group of historical, cultural, and literary scholars in this volume to investigate the complicated, nuanced, and often surprising unions of love and violence in courtly medieval literature. 410 0$aMedieval casebooks. 606 $aLiterature, Medieval$xHistory and criticism 606 $aViolence in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiterature, Medieval$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aViolence in literature. 676 $a809/.933552 701 $aClassen$b Albrecht$016691 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457295403321 996 $aViolence in medieval courtly literature$92011360 997 $aUNINA
