Download or read book John Lydgate's Dance of Death and Related Works written by Megan L Cook and published by Medieval Institute Publications. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume joins new editions of both texts of John Lydgate's The Dance of Death, related Middle English verse, and a new translation of Lydgate's French source, the Danse macabre. Together these poems showcase the power of the danse macabre motif, offering a window into life and death in late medieval Europe. In vivid, often grotesque, and darkly humorous terms, these poems ponder life's fundamental paradox: while we know that we all must die, we cannot imagine our own death.
