Note
"This collection of essays is the result of a multi-year exchange program between medievalists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and research teams of France Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique."
"The exchange culminated in an international conference in Urbana, April 29-May 2, 2002, during which preliminary versions of these essays were presented."
Focusing on language?s political power, these essays discuss how representation ? through language norms, plays and spectacles, manipulations and adaptations of texts and images ? both constitutes and reflects a cultural milieu.
