Discourse and dominion in the fourteenth century : oral contexts of writing in philosophy, politics, and poetry

Author:	Jesse M Gellrich
Publisher:	Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, ©1995.

Summary:	This wide-ranging study of language and cultural change in fourteenth-century England argues that the influence of oral tradition is much more important to the advance of literary than scholarship has previously recognized. In contrast to the view of orality and literacy as contending forces of opposition, the book maintains that the power of language consists in displacement, the capacity of one channel of language to take the place of the other, to make the source disappear into the copy. Appreciating the interplay between oral and written language makes possible for the first time a way of understanding the high literate achievements of this century in relation to momentous developments in social and political life.  Read more...
