Contemplations of the Dread and Love of God
ISBN: 9780197223055 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This work, also known as Fervor Amoris, is a late-medieval devotional prose text. In essence it is a manual of guidance for the spiritual and ethical life, directed at the lay population, and intended for both sexes, rather than at a monastic audience (although there is evidence that the text was read by nuns). It is a useful index of English popular spirituality since its circulation seems to have been extensive: it survives in 16 manuscripts, dating from the early-to-mid 15th century, and two early 16th century printed editions, evidence of its enduring popularity into the Early Modern...

John Shirley’s importance as a scribe of late fourteen-and early fifteenth-century vernacular poetry (in particular the works of Chauncer and Lydgate) has long been recognised. Not only did Shirley bring these works to the attention of a wider audience in his own time, but the survival of some if his manuscripts has perpetuated these texts for future generations of readers. Indeed, some of these poems are now only known through his manuscripts.
In this meticulously researched survey, Margaret Connolly makes a thorough examination of all extent documents relating to... Published in 1998. John Shirley’s importance as a scribe of late fourteen-and early fifteenth-century vernacular poetry (in particular the works of ...

Insular Books: Vernacular Manuscript Miscellanies in Late Medieval Britain
ISBN: 9780197265833 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Medieval miscellanies are multi-text manuscripts, made up of varied contents, often in a mixture of languages. They might be the work of one compiler or several, and might have been put together over a short period of time or over many years (even over several generations). Such mixed manuscripts are much more common that we might imagine and indeed are a typical environment for the survival of medieval texts.
Two novel and ambitious avenues for investigation form the core of the present volume. First, how can we define the miscellany and best engage with and exploit the complex questions...

Design and Distribution of Late Medieval Manuscripts in England
ISBN: 9781903153246 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. One of the most important developments in medieval English literary studies since the 1980s has been the growth of manuscript studies. Long regarded as mere textual repositories, and treated superficially by editors, manuscripts are now acknowledged as centrally important in the study of later medieval texts. The essays collected here discuss aspects of the design and distribution of manuscripts in late medieval England, with a particular focus on vernacular manuscripts of the late fourteenth, fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Those in the first half consider material evidence for...

Sixteenth-Century Readers, Fifteenth-Century Books: Continuities of Reading in the English Reformation
ISBN: 9781108445528 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This innovative study investigates the reception of medieval manuscripts over a long century, 1470–1585, spanning the reigns of Edward IV to Elizabeth I. Members of the Tudor gentry family who owned these manuscripts had properties in Willesden and professional affiliations in London. These men marked the leaves of their books with signs of use, allowing their engagement with the texts contained there to be reconstructed. Through detailed research, Margaret Connolly reveals the various uses of these old books: as a repository for family records; as a place to preserve other texts of a...
