In this ground-breaking book, now returned to print with a new afterword by the author, Maria Rosa Menocal argues that major modifications of the medieval canon and its literary history are necessary. Menocal reviews the Arabic cultural presence in a variety of key settings, including the courts of William of Aquitaine and Frederick II, the universities in London, Paris, and Bologna, and Cluny under Peter the Venerable, and she examines how our perception of specific texts including the courtly love lyric and the works of Dante and Boccaccio would be altered by an acknowledgment of the Arabic cultural component. 410 0$aMiddle Ages series. 606 $aLiterature, Medieval$xArab influences 606 $aRomance literature$xArab influences 606 $aLiterature, Medieval$xResearch 606 $aRomance literature$xResearch 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiterature, Medieval$xArab influences. 615 0$aRomance literature$xArab influences. 615 0$aLiterature, Medieval$xResearch. 615 0$aRomance literature$xResearch. 676 $a809/.02 700 $aMenocal$b Maria Rosa$0169666 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457378503321 996 $aThe Arabic role in medieval literary history$92484886 997 $aUNINA
