Synopsis "The Subject of Violence: The Song of Roland and the Birth of the State"
This book provides the reader with a new, challenging, and sophisticated critical analysis of the Song of Roland." -Choice [Haidu's] close reading of the Song of Roland is interesting, informative, and significant... "-American Historical Review Probably the most sophisticated book ever written on the Song of Roland.... It is at once a work of linguistic analysis, of literary theory, of literary history, and, finally, of history." -R. Howard Bloch Haidu argues that the 12th-century Song of Roland played an essential role in the creation of the nation-state, in that the narrative transforms the independent and violent warriors of the feudal period into the subordinate instruments of the nation-state by enforcing on them the subjection to the rule of monarchy.
