Anotace knihy

This book makes the compelling argument that Chaucer, the Perle-poet, and The Cloud of Unknowing author exploited analogue and metaphor for marking out the pedagogical gap between science and the imagination. These writerstake up anAristotelian confidence in reason as a proof model for works of the imagination. St. Augustine, too,had argued persuasively that we might well train ourselves "to discern in the light of reason what [we] already hold by faith." By the 12th century, John of Salisbury, in hisMetalogicon, had argued that "sensation is the progenitor of science." Chaucer, the Perle-poet, and the author of The Cloud of Unknowing set out models for such instruction - for seeing from the center - as theymap the pedagogicalenergy of the browsing imagination. Here, Linda Tarte Holley adds definition to arguments that still gain our attention and energies in the twenty-first century.
