- Description
- The treatment of Cupid in the various works of Bodleian MS Fairfax 16 reveals a cultural transition from the Gallic tradition of the supremacy of love-and from the Latinate tradition of the supremacy of religion-to a new English poetic tradition. This new tradition appeals specifically to a community of men, both educated and uneducated, as sufferers in the tradition and writers of the genre. Tinkle includes discussion of LGW.
