Description

This study explores a popular medieval European narrative, the legend of Barlaam and Josaphat. It offers a compendium-like presentation of the rich narrative tradition, and an examination of a corpus of texts in the light of cultural and poetological questions. The book is structured to allow for comparison, contributing to comparative medieval literary studies and stimulating renewed research on the story of Barlaam.
