Affective Vengeance in 'Titus and Vespasian'
- Published
- Chaucer Review 43 (2009): 330-44.
- Description
- Its fierce anti-Semitism notwithstanding, "Titus and Vespasian" is an important document of cultural uses of the "fall-of-Jerusalem narrative" and of attitudes toward Jews and Judaism in late medieval England. Thus, it deserves scholarly attention alongside works such as the "Siege of Jerusalem" and PrT.
