Book Description
If we are to give credence to legendary stories of our various cultures, then mankind is in a period of kimbo; the time between Paradise Lost and Paradise regained; between expulsion from Eden and attaining the blessed state of perfect happiness in Elysias. So mankind struggles through the vagaries of time and chance, weathering the buffetings of circumstance and fortune. Still, all it not lost or unfulfilled, for in our contending with time and chance, we become the recipients of countless experiences-pleasant and tragic-that inhabit our memories and weave the fabric of who we are; and we can record these memories of our experiences and encounters, thereby revealing ourselves, publishing our feelings to fellow sojourners.

Book Description
The prescience of medieval English authors has long been a source of fascination to readers. Retrospective Prophecy and Medieval English Authorship draws attention to the ways that misinterpreted, proleptically added, or dubiously attributed prognostications influenced the reputations of famed Middle English authors. It illuminates the creative ways in which William Langland, John Gower, and Geoffrey Chaucer engaged with prophecy to cultivate their own identities and to speak to the problems of their age. Retrospective Prophecy and Medieval English Authorship examines the prophetic reputations of these well-known medieval authors whose fame made them especially subject to nationalist appropriation. Kimberly Fonzo explains that retrospectively co-opting the prophetic voices of canonical authors aids those looking to excuse or endorse key events of national history by implying that they were destined to happen. She challenges the reputations of Langland, Gower, and Chaucer as prophets of the Protestant Reformation, Richard II’s deposition, and secular Humanism, respectively. This intellectual and critical assessment of medieval authors and their works successfully makes the case that prophecy emerged and recurred as an important theme in medieval authorial self-representations.
