Literary history and the medieval miscellany

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This first-ever monograph on the celebrated medieval miscellany Harley 2253 (c. 1340) uses methods derived from cultural geography to revise prevailing understandings of English literary history. The Harley manuscript's extraordinary diversity of texts has a counterpart in the monograph's topical range and flexibility of approach.
