Book Review
THE TUDOR COURT
1989
Overview
Included in this section is a brief metamorphic sketch of the chivalric ideal, which begins as a code of ethics for the battlefield and evolves into a literary and social ideology within the cultural fabric of the court. Why, for example, despite the deeply patriarchal attitudes of 15th century English society, are women given a 'voice' (albeit a phal- logocentric one), and how is it that this voice, within the courtly love tradition, is generated when no such fertilizing seed inheres within previous literary cultures from which the English canon evolves? Through constant irritation due to glaring omissions on the part of the author, the reader is left howling, \"But what about this?...Why mention this at all?...Why not explore that in some detail?\" It is in the recognition of these absences that the reader, in Iserian fashion, fills in the missing textual gaps in order to create possible meanings and actualizes whatever horizon of expectations one perceives this book to explore and/or suggest.
