Reading the Exemplum Right: Fixing the Meaning of El Conde Lucanor - North Carolina Studies in the Romance Languages and Literatures
Jonathan Burgoyne
Situates Juan Manuel at the apex of the European literary tradition of the exemplum. Following the medieval modes of reading and writing that structure Juan Manuel's text, this title uncovers a rhetorical lesson woven into the entire five-part Conde Lucanor that lays bare the inherent ambivalence of the exemplum as a narrative sign.
