Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 1993. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. In a poststructuralist study of thirteenth-century French historical texts, Gabrielle Spiegel investigates the reasons for the rise of French vernacular prose historiography at this particular time. She argues that the vernacular prose histories that have until now been regarded as royalist were actually products of the aristocracy, reflecting its anxiety as it faced social and economic change and political threats from the monarchy.Black cloth with silver spine lettering. Frontispiece. Previous owner's name written inside front cover. xiii, 422pp., index. Full refund if not satisfied.
