Comparado con esta revoluci��n el Renacimiento es un simple remolino en la superficie de la literatura��.</p><p>Resulta particularmente relevante dentro del presente ensayo el estudio que Lewis realiza de <em>El libro de la rosa</em> obra cumbre del g��nero dentro de la literatura tardo medieval<strong>.</strong></p><p><strong>The Allegory of Love</strong></p><p>This work originally published in 1936 constitutes one of the most influential academic works of C.S.
