Description

What defines the essence of English literature? In this study from the Studies in Medieval History and Culture series, Stephen Harris addresses this fundamental question through a wide-ranging analysis of Old English literature. This academic work tracks the development of identity from the eighth century with Bede to the twelfth century with Geoffrey of Monmouth. Harris explores how race and literature intersected long before the concept of imagined communities emerged. By examining various community configurations, the text illustrates dominant literary metaphors of race that span from the Old English period through its nineteenth-century critical reception. Readers will gain insight into how literary voices in the era of Bede understood the boundaries of community through racial or tribal lenses. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the historical foundations of English identity and the evolution of literary theory regarding race and ethnicity.
