Overview

The adoption of literary prose in Romance literature since the beginning of the 13th century is one of the most important changes in the European vernacular literary system, which leads to a restructuring of literary genres in different literatures, with long-term consequences. The volume addresses this theme by combining two aspects: on the one hand, the production of texts, with particular attention to genres that were important for medieval culture, but often neglected, such as legal, hagiographic and historiographic prose; on the other hand, the circulation of texts through manuscripts, which concretely represented the prose models to which readers had access. It thus became possible to integrate the normally distinct plans of literary history and the history of the manuscript tradition.
