Abstract

This article tackles the relation between embodiment and language in the Middle English romance "The KIng of Tars", including a discussion of the "Elders of the Apocalypse" (Tympanum of St Pierre Abbey, Moissac) and Chaucer's "Second Nun's Tale". It considers deviant language acts, religious ritual, and theological models of corporeity.
