TRAMA
This collection offers feminist readings of the characters' representations in film and in other visual arts as well as eighteen illustrations of the lovers' first kiss and the consummation of the adultery.NOTE EDITORE
Beginning with an introduction that examines the portrayal of the characters of Lancelot and Guinevere from their origins to the present day, this collection of 16 essays-five of which appear here for the first time-puts particular emphasis on the appearance of the two characters in medieval and modern literature. Besides several studies exploring feminist concerns, the volume features articles on the representation of the lovers in medieval manuscript illuminations (18 plates focus on scenes of their first kiss and the consummation of the adultery), in film, and in other visual arts. A 200-item bibliography completes the volume.SOMMARIO
