    The Earliest Transmission of Langland's Work

    de Lawrence Warner ...
    Series series The Middle Ages Series
    Despite the recent outpouring of scholarship on Piers Plowman, Lawrence Warner contends, we know much less about the poem's production, transmission, and readership than one might think.

  • Chaucer's Scribes

    London Textual Production, 1384–1432

    de Lawrence Warner ...
    Series series Cambridge Studies in Medieval Literature

Adam Pynkhurst dominated the classroom, became a fictional character, and led to suggestions that this identification should prompt the abandonment of our understanding of the development of London English and acceptance that the clerks of the Guildhall were promoting vernacular ...

  • Poetry

    A Very Short Introduction

    de Bernard O'Donoghue ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    Poetry, arguably, has a greater range of conceptual meaning than perhaps any other term in English. At the most basic level everyone can recognise it--it is a kind of literature that uses special linguistic devices of organization and expression for aesthetic effect. However, far grander claims have been made for poetry than this--such as Shelley's that the poets 'are the unacknowledged ... Leer más

  • Arts of Dying

    Literature and Finitude in Medieval England

    de D. Vance Smith ...
    People in the Middle Ages had chantry chapels, mortuary rolls, the daily observance of the Office of the Dead, and even purgatory—but they were still unable to talk about death. Their inability wasn't due to religion, but philosophy: saying someone is dead is nonsense, as the person no longer is. The one thing that can talk about something that is not, as D. Vance Smith shows in this innovative, ... Leer más

    Personal Names in English Literature

    de Alastair Fowler ...
    Why do authors use pseudonyms and pen-names, or ingeniously hide names in their work with acrostics and anagrams? How has the range of permissible given names changed and how is this reflected in literature? Why do some characters remain mysteriously nameless? In this rich and learned book, Alastair Fowler explores the use of names in literature of all periods - primarily English but also Latin, ... Leer más
