| Abstract | "This new edition of the Middle English "Castle of Love" includes a French text of "Le château d'amour," Robert Grosseteste's Anglo-Norman poem that forms the basis of the medieval English translation. Rich biblical allusions and architectural imagery showcase the popular allegory of Virgin Mary as castle of love, set within Grosseteste's influential interpretation of the allegory of the four daughters of God, where medieval romance motifs, feudal structures, and legal principles illuminate the central theme of salvation history"-- Provided by publisher. |
