Course Reader
From drinking songs and poems of seduction to works of religious meditation and devotion, the lyric reflects a variety of subjects and concerns. This course serves as an extensive introduction to lyric poetry from the twelfth to the sixteenth century, from anonymous authors to Chaucer to Spenser. We will consider what the term “lyric” means: How has it been defined? How has that definition changed? What happens to lyric form in the shift from the medieval to the renaissance? We will also investigate what these poems say concerning sexuality and gender, religious faith, and subjectivity.
