- Description
- Studies Sercambi's "Novelle" and CT against the background of historical writing, and classical and medieval traditions of "narratio brevis," including the oriental models, in particular the frame stories "in itinere." Analyzes features of short stories from the perspective of the Sociocritic School, which sees them as a subversion of the macro-story of religious pilgrimage and the morals and religion of the late fourteenth century.
