"Custom, according to Ross, may be examined as the reflection of knotty moral situations and problems and contradictions . . . the occasion for pondering the ways in which arbitrary rules and virtuous behavior collide and interfere with each other. The thesis is a new one, and Ross's readings are fresh and provocative."--Robert L. Montgomery, University of California, Irvine

Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 205 pages. "The author explores the changing legal and cultural conceptions of customs in France, Italy, and England to uncover a broad array of moral issues in the many castles stories, where others have seen no more than a fanciful heroic test or an expression of courtly ideology. He concentrates on single scenes that are common to a series of epics, showing how their naunced narratives reflect real social limits of order, violence, justice, civility, and political conformity." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE DUST JACKET.
