Fortune's Faces by Daniel Heller-Roazen

Fortune's Faces by Daniel Heller-Roazen

Considered in its full poetic and philosophical dimensions, the Romance of the Rose thus acquires an altogether new significance in the history of literature: it appears as a work that incessantly explores its own capacity to be other than it is.

Beautiful language.. and an elegant, intricate presentation of argument. -- Susan Stakel Speculum 2006 A valuable asset to those interested in discovering fresh interpretations of one of the most remarkable literary works of the Middle Ages. -- Amy L. Ingram Vox Romanica 2005 A sustained and highly original philosophical tour de force. -- Catherine Attwood Medium Aevum 2006 Heller-Roazen's mastery of medieval philology and philosophy is impressive, and representative of a new generation of medieval studies. -- Sarah-Grace Heller French Review 2005

Daniel Heller-Roazen is an assistant professor of comparative literature at Princeton University.
