Description
Summary:In medieval letters all the associations between the past and literature crystallize, all the clues that an essential link unites the notion of literature with the feeling of the past. The curiosity aroused by medieval literature since its rediscovery at the dawn of Romanticism presupposes such associations. The forms of this literature itself conceal such clues. They invite us to embrace at the same glance the interest of the modern era for the medieval past and the signs of the past with which the Middle Ages mark its own literature. What is more, they invite us to seek in the relation with the past a criterion for defining literature, a task which is particularly necessary when it comes to a time when the word is not understood in its modern sense and where existence itself of the corresponding concept is not guaranteed.
