Top scholars in the field unite here withcritical newcomers to offer fresh perspectives on the function of poetry on thecusp of the modern age, and in particular on the way that poetry speaks to theheightened relevance of material goods and possessions to the formation of latemedieval identity and literary taste. Advancing in provocative ways the emergingfields of fifteenth-century literary and cultural study, the volume as a wholeexplores the role of the aesthetic not only in late medieval society but also inour own.
