Resumen: |
Chaucerotics examina el lenguaje erótico en la literatura chauceriana a través de una lente única, utilizando las herramientas de la "teorÃa literaria pornográfica" para abrir la poesÃa obscena de Chaucer a nuevos modos de análisis. Al introducir y aplicar la noción de "chauceroticos", este estudio aboga por una comprensión más matizada históricamente y teóricamente más sofisticada del contenido obsceno en los fabliaux y Troilo y Criseyde de Chaucer. Este libro demuestra que el lenguaje sexualmente sugerente de este magistral poeta del inglés medio podrÃa estimular y excitar a diversos públicos literarios en la Inglaterra medieval tardÃa, e incluso llega a sugerir que Chaucer bien podrÃa ser entendido como el "padre de la pornografÃa inglesa" por jugar un papel liminal notable en el desarrollo del porno como género literario. Al exponer este caso, Geoffrey W. Gust presenta un relato perspicaz de una cuestión intelectual importante y abre la consideración del tema de la pornografÃa premoderna de una manera nueva y altamente provocativa. . |

Summary : |
Chaucerotics examines the erotic language in Chaucerian literature through a unique lens, utilizing the tools of "pornographic literary theory" to open up Chaucer's ribald poetry to fresh modes of analysis. By introducing and applying the notion of "Chaucerotics," this study argues for a more historically-nuanced and theoretically-sophisticated understanding of the obscene content in Chaucer's fabliaux and Troilus and Criseyde. This book demonstrates that the sexually suggestive language of this magisterial Middle English poet could stimulate and titillate various literary audiences in late medieval England, and even goes so far as to suggest that Chaucer might well be understood as the "Father of English pornography" for playing a notable, liminal role in the development of porn as a literary genre. In making this case, Geoffrey W. Gust presents an insightful account of an important intellectual issue and opens up the subject of premodern pornography to consideration in a way that is new and highly provocative. . |
