Description
The five essays in this special issue engage with the ways in which the three main languages of the Low Countries (Latin, French and Dutch) interact in the literary texts in the broadest sense of the word. The purpose of this focus is to give a more diversified view of textual culture in the late medieval and early modern Low Countries, which traditionally has been studied from a mostly monolingual perspective. The selected contributions use the term 'multilingualism' to cover a rather broad and heterogeneous body of phenomena that share a form of contact or interplay between different languages. They also draw on a mixture of theoretical approaches and methodologies (new philology, translation studies, book history, stylistics, etc.). The texts, manuscripts and printed books under scrutiny were produced between the twelfth and seventeenth century in an area covering present-day Netherlands, Belgium and France.
