Synopsis

This book is a critical edition of Fra Rocaberti's 15th-century Spanish poem, Gloria d'Amor. This dream-vision poem follows the author through a garden where he encounters lovers from history and mythology. Scholars have long considered it derivative of Dante's Divine Comedy, and this book presents an overview of the poem's literary, historical, and cultural significance, placing it within the broader context of medieval European literature. Through a close analysis of its themes and ideas, the book explores the poem's exploration of love, desire, and suffering, and its insights into human nature and the complexities of romantic relationships. The concluding section of the book assesses the poem's place in the literary canon, highlighting its importance as a major work of medieval Catalan literature.
