Recenzje

Volume 3, equally rich and well curated, maintains the same focus on variety. As we enter the world of the fifteenth century, however, contextual and generic changes mark a transformed literary landscape...There were significant new trends and genres. Attention is given throughout this volume to the flourishing production and circulation of Scottish literature.
