 | | Curtius, E.R.; Trask, W.R., trans.: European Literature and the Latin Middle Ages: (With a new epilogue by Peter Godman). |
 | | In this "magnificent book" (T. Eliot), Ernst Robert Curtius (1886-1956), one of the foremost literary scholars of this century, examines the continuity of European literature from Homer to Goethe, with particular emphasis on the Latin Middle Ages. |
 | | "A balanced introduction to Curtius studies, putting this masterpiece in context as the work of a German academic 'mandarin' whom family history, character, and intellectual training made an advocate for an elite European cultural cosmopolitanism."--Sixteenth Century Journal |
