Through detailed comparisons with both Old French and Middle English material, Siobhán M. Wyatt discusses how Malory radically altered his French and English source texts to create a gendered pattern in the reliability of speech, depicting female discourse as valuable and truthful. Malory’s authorial crafting indicates his preference for a certain “type” of female character: self-governing, opinionated, and strong.?Simultaneously, the portrayal of this very readable “type” yields characterization. While late medieval court records indicate an increasingly negative attitude towards female speech and a tendency to punish vociferous women as “scolds,” Malory makes the words of chiding damsels constructive. While his contemporary writers suppress the powers of magical women, Malory empowers his enchantress characters; while the authors of his French source texts accentuate Guinevere’s flaws, Malory portrays her with sympathy.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Malory; Female Characters; Le Morte Darthur; Medieval; Literature; British and Irish Literature | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-34204-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-81702-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-34204-7Series ISSN 2945-6916 Series E-ISSN 2945-6924 | | issn_series | 2945-6916 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
