Through close reading of the text and examining illustrated Wigalois manuscripts, early print editions, and frescoes, Brown explores how ekphrasis structures the narrative, harmonizes potential conflicts in the text, and contributes to the construction of courtly identity. Imagining the Text demonstrates that the vibrant symbiosis of word and image is crucial to the poem?s sustained popularity for more than six hundred years, and contributes to the history of the book and to the study of medieval and modern modes of perception. 410 0$aVisualising the Middle Ages ;$vVolume 10. 606 $aEkphrasis 606 $aKnights and knighthood in literature 606 $aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEkphrasis. 615 0$aKnights and knighthood in literature. 615 0$aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a831/.21 700 $aBrown$b James H.$f1968-$01485911 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797762503321 996 $aImagining the text$93705219 997 $aUNINA
