Abstract

Argues strongly for a reading of medieval poetry based on the notion of array--the outlined, divided, and subdivided parts making up many texts. He proposes a criticism based on an analysis of outlines, or an analysis of forma tractatus. Thus, the Confessio Amantis and the Vox Clamantis come in for brief mention, as evidence of versions of the array-making consciousness of the late 14th century. [PN. Copyright the John Gower Society.
