"Theorizing the Ideal Sovereign examines the ways in which vernacular biographies of kings from the later French Middle Ages reflected and contributed to transformations in late-medieval political and philosophical thought. Using a lens of literary analysis for works that have more often been read as historical source documents, Daisy Delogu demonstrates how theories of kingship evolved in the period of the 'rediscovery' of Aristotle, the rise of the vernacular as a language of ethics and philosophy, and the Hundred Years' War."--BOOK JACKET.
