The Flourishing of Romance and the Rise of Allegory is a literary work by George Saintsbury, first published in 1897. This book explores the development of two significant literary forms in the Middle Ages: romance and allegory. Saintsbury traces the origins of romance to the troubadours of Southern France and discusses its evolution into a popular genre across Europe. He also examines the rise of allegory in medieval literature, particularly in the works of Dante, Chaucer, and Spenser. Saintsbury's analysis of these two forms provides a comprehensive understanding of the literary landscape of the Middle Ages and their influence on later periods. This book is an essential read for students and scholars of medieval literature and those interested in the history of literary forms.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
