Ideas of living death - from undying love to supernatural survival - are remarkably prevalent in medieval literature. This book provides original, provocative interpretations of canonical medieval texts, from the Song of Roland to Chaucer, in the light of influential modern theories, especially Lacanian psychoanalysis, presented in an accessible and lively way.
