  The First Crusade in late medieval exempla.(Critical essay) - Encyclopedia.com
It is therefore possible to identify the crusade exemplum as a subgenre within the broader category of exempla, but we must simultaneously be cognizant of the reality that exempla about crusading were not necessarily associated with crusade preaching.
An exemplum related by the Dominican Stephen of Bourbon (c.1190-1261) in the last decade of his life states that when Godfrey governed Jerusalem (July 1099-July 1100), the Saracens were distraught because none among them was able to resist him or a blow from his sword.
The universality of the bishop's apparition is also related in the exemplum, but the Arundel compiler diverges from the chronicle evidence by combining this story with an incident involving a hermit on the Mount of Olives who advised the crusading army before their attack on Jerusalem.

  Location of an exemplum for the pilgrims is difficult because the intentions of the Pardoner, as well as those of Chaucer, are shrouded behind the Pardoner’s combination of sin and skill and behind his unexplained reaction to the Host’s rebuff.
If the Pardoner himself is supposed to serve as a negative exemplum, then the audience should be able to recognize the sin he commits and see his punishment for that sin, so that they may turn away from that sin.
  For the church congregation, the exemplum is comprehensible and compelling.

 'A higher sphere of thought': Emerson's use of the exemplum and exemplum fidei (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
The presence of the moral sentiment within nature and the ability of the individual to access it through his exercise of autonomous thought establish the foundation upon which Emerson constructs his paradigm of the heroic exemplar, which exhibits signs of the imitatio Christi from both medieval hagiography and its subsequent Protestant transfigurations.
Elements of both the Catholic exemplum and the Reformed exemplum fidei appear within the lives of Emerson's heroes and in his paradigm of the heroic exemplar.
Despite the apparent belief of many of his critics that Emerson abandoned religion at the time he left the ministry, such a conclusion is not supported by close examination of his works.

 Bishop: ‘And Feminine To Plead’: Early Feminist Reception of the Hortensia Exemplum
In women’s writing before an organized and well-disseminated women’s history, it is customary to find female authors anxious to create historical continuity for the female gender on the analogy of male (ie, mainstream) history.
It is in this context that I trace the use of the exemplum of Hortensia.
Famous for her role as spokeswoman of the female cause during the Second Triumvirate, Hortensia, linked with concepts of female authorship and public speech, offers an exemplum that resonates with later female writers.

 Wilcox: Pastor's Impassivity: A Parodic Exemplum at De Ira 2.33
At De Ira 2.33, Seneca writes, "Often it is so far from advantageous to repay an injury that it is not even useful to acknowledge it (Saepe adeo iniuriam vindicare non expedit ut ne fateri quidem expediat).
In this paper, I show that this anecdote presents a parodic version of a standard historical exemplum virtutis of the nobly bereaved father.
I argue that Seneca's account of Pastor calls attention to a distortion of traditional Roman virtue (virtus), and further, that this anecdote implies criticism of the principate, because Seneca suggests that the distortion of aristocratic virtue is a result of autocratic rule.

 The Anthropology of Wisdom Literature — www.greenwood.com
Description: This unusual book examines definitions of the fable, apologue, parable, moral tale, etc. It then proposes the use of the term exemplum, used by medieval scribes, to define all types of wisdom narratives.
It makes a cross-cultural structural analysis of the exemplum and identifies its tripartite structure composed of the promythium, the nucleus, and the epimythium.
The book ends with an analysis of the reasons why grown men spent so much time writing and collecting these tales.

 Mark Johnston's M/MLA paper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Moralists like Llull invite us to consider the wider use of exemplary material for purposes of socialization and control of conduct in the later Middle Ages, which recent studies on practices of confession, devotion, and asceticism have explored.
It's interesting to note that this exemplum teaches exaltation of the quotidian as a kind of exercise in allegoria per contrarium, based on attention to the intentiones that penitential methods of the era scrutinize so keenly.
Later medieval devotional writers develop the allegory of daily life into comprehensive guides for meditation on quotidian affairs (see especially the manuals for women studied by Hasenohr).
