- Description
- Uses "the frameworks of illness narrative, narrative medicine, and trauma theory" along with the model found in Boethius's "Consolation of Philosophy" to "examine the doctor–patient relationship" in BD, Gower's "Confessio Amantis," and "Pearl," "assessing how well each therapist-figure attends to his or her patient." Investigates therapeutical versus penitential confession in BD.
