The Sagas of Icelanders: (penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)
ISBN: 9780141000039 / Angielski / Miękka / 848 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 14-20 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) A unique body of medieval literature, the Sagas rank with the world's greatest literary treasures--as epic as Homer, as deep in tragedy as Sophocles, as engagingly human as Shakespeare. Set around the turn of the last millennium, these stories depict with an astonishingly modern realism the lives and deeds of the Norse men and women who first settled Iceland and of their descendants, who ventured further west--to Greenland and, ultimately, the coast of North America itself.
The ten Sagas and seven shorter tales in this volume include the celebrated "Vinland Sagas," which recount Leif... A unique body of medieval literature, the Sagas rank with the world's greatest literary treasures--as epic as Homer, as deep in tragedy as Sophocles, ...

S. Ephraim's Quotations from the Gospel
ISBN: 9781593333201 / Angielski / Twarda / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) This book is an attempt to determine what text of the Gospels was used in the genuine works of S. Ephraim, and to investigate the bearing of his quotations upon the date of the Peshitta. He himself died about 373 AD, so that any version of the Bible used by him must be at least as old as the fourth century.

The Digby Poems: A New Edition of the Lyrics
ISBN: 9780859898164 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) In Helen Barr's new edition, the 24 short lyrics of Oxford Bodleian MS Digby 102 are freshly transcribed and edited. The critical apparatus includes a full introduction, extensive annotation to each poem, and a new glossary. New evidence shows that this sequence of poems was written in the early years of Henry V's reign (c.1413-14), and most probably by a Benedictine monk eager to add his support for the Henrician new dawn. There is strong support for war against France and for the proper conduct of parliamentary business. The poems are rigorous in their call for orthodox reform from within...

Manekine, John and Blonde, and "foolish Generosity"
ISBN: 9780271035772 / Angielski / Miękka / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) Philippe de Remi (1200/1210-65) holds a remarkable position in the legacy of the thirteenth-century literary world. A layman, landholder, and professional administrator, rather than a court poet or member of the clergy, Philippe de Remi wrote poems, songs, and long verse narratives that were grounded in his familiarity with the literary genres of his day. While Philippe paid homage to Chretien de Troyes and other important secular writers of the period, his station in society and an intended audience of family and friends, not patrons, allowed him the freedom to treat courtly conventions...

Visions of the End in Medieval Spain: Catalogue of Illustrated Beatus Commentaries on the Apocalypse and Study of the Geneva Beatus
ISBN: 9789462980624 / Angielski / Twarda / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) This is the first study to bring together all twenty-nine extant copies of the medieval Commentary on the Apocalypse, which was written by Spanish monk Beatus of Liebana. John Williams, a renowned expert on the Commentary, shares a lifetime of study and offers new insights on these strikingly illustrated manuscripts. As he shows, the Commentary responded to differing monastic needs within the shifting context of the Middle Ages. Of special interest is a discussion of the recently discovered Geneva copy: one of only three commentaries to be written outside of the Iberian...

Middle-Aged Women in the Middle Ages
ISBN: 9781843842828 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) The phenomenon of medieval women's middle age is a stage in the lifecycle that has been frequently overlooked in preference for the examination of female youth and old age. The essays collected here, ranging from the Anglo-Saxon to the late medieval period, and drawing variously from literary studies, history, law, art and theology, address this lacuna. Taking a variety of critical approaches, the contributors consider medieval definitions, paradigms and experiences of female middle age, analysing how the middle-aged woman perceived herself subjectively, as well as how she was perceived by...

(Opens) up an entirely new corpus of texts for scholars and readers familar with and interested in European dramatic texts from this period, but who have heretofore not had access to them due to the language barrier.' Professor David F. Johnson, Florida State University, Tallahassee During the Middle Ages and early modern period, a dramatic culture of astonishing vitality developed in the Low Countries. Owing to the activities of organisations known as rederijkerskamers, or -chambers of rhetoric-, drama became a central aspect of public life in the cities of the Netherlands. The comedies...

Norse Romance III: Hrra Ivan
ISBN: 9781843843078 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) Haerra Ivan (Sir Ivan, the Knight with the Lion) is the first major work of fiction in Swedish, and an important Scandinavian example of Arthurian romance. The translation from the French original was carried out at the request of the German-born Queen Eufemia of Norway, a country with a richer literary culture than Sweden at the time: Haerra Ivan thus brought Continental, courtly culture to the then recently formalised Swedish feudal class. Last edited in 1931, the poem has been unjustly neglected in recent years; this edition and English translation, with introduction, will make it widely...

Dutch Romances II: Ferguut
ISBN: 9781843843092 / Angielski / Miękka / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) Some time in the first quarter of the thirteenth century, Guillaume le Clerc composed the story of Fergus, a romance in which the main character features as a -new- Perceval in a realistically depicted Scottish landscape. Shortly thereafter, perhaps as early as 1250, the story was translated into Middle Dutch. The Ferguut, however, is an adaptation of the Old French Fergus, rather than a slavish translation. The result is a romance which possesses all the appeal of the Old French Fergus, but at the same time reveals something of the Middle Dutch romancer's tastes and techniques. This volume...

Dutch Romances III: Five Interpolated Romances from the Lancelot Compilation

The romances translated here are contained in the so-called Lancelot Compilation. Compiled in the early fourteenth century by five scribes, its 241 extant folios contain the lion's share of Arthurian romance in Middle Dutch, no fewer than ten texts. The core of this compilation is comprised of translations into rhymed couplets of the Lancelot-Queste-Mort, into which seven additional romances have been inserted. The result is a compilation that successfully transforms a number of disparate texts into an ordered sequence of ten Arthurian romances, a project that rivals similar ones in better...

The Continuations of Chrtien's Perceval: Content and Construction, Extension and Ending
ISBN: 9781843843160 / Angielski / Twarda / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych (bez gwarancji dostawy w 2019 r.) The notion of Continuation in medieval literature is a familiar one - but difficult to define precisely. Despite the existence of important texts which are commonly referred to as Continuations, such as Le Roman de la Rose, Le Chevalier de la Charrette and, of course, the Perceval Continuations, the mechanics and processes involved in actually producing a Continuation have found themselves indistinguishable from those associated with other forms of medieval reecriture. The Perceval Continuations (composed c.1200-1230) constitute a vast body of material which incorporates four separately...

Laurence Nowell (1530-c.1570), author of the first dictionary of Old English, and William Lambarde (1536-1601), Nowell's protege and eventually the first editor of the Old English Laws, are key figures in Elizabethan historical discourses and in its political and literary society; through their work the period between...
