The narrative grotesque is exemplified in these poems, which fracture narratological boundaries by fusing disparate poetic forms and creating hybrid subjectivities. Consequently, these poems interrogate conventional boundaries in poetic \u003ci\u003emaking\u003c\/i\u003e. The narrative grotesque is applied as a framework to elucidate these chimeric texts and to understand newly late medieval engagement with poetics and narratology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: the narrative grotesque \u003cbr\u003ePart I: \u003ci\u003eThe Palyce of Honour\u003c\/i\u003e, Gavin Douglas\u003cbr\u003e1 ‘Overset with fantasyis’: grotesquing the dream vision \u003cbr\u003e2 Identity crisis: temporal dissonance and narrative voice \u003cbr\u003e3 Heavenly harmonies: classical and Christian divinity in \u003ci\u003ePalyce \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart II: \u003ci\u003eThe Tretis of the Tua Mariit Wemen and the Wedo\u003c\/i\u003e, William Dunbar\u003cbr\u003e4 Making \u003ci\u003edemandes\u003c\/i\u003e: frame, form, and narratorial persona\u003cbr\u003e5 Flyte of fancy: the first wife’s \u003ci\u003eResponse\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6 Lovesick or sick of love?: The second wife’s \u003ci\u003eResponse \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7 Bad romance: the widow as venerean preacher \u003cbr\u003eConclusion\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041026113879,"sku":"9781526160812","price":63.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781526160812.jpg?v=1750948654","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-narrative-grotesque-in-medieval-scottish-poetry-9781526160812","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
