Description

Cassell - London, 1961. Hardcover With Dust Jacket. Good Condition , ex lib. This first volume covers the period from Chaucer to Spenser. It includes two general surveys of the literature of the period, one of the poetry and the other on prose; an account of the social context of literature at the time; and then a series of essays dealing in detail with individual writers and works. Also the volume contains an appendix of biographies and bibliographies. And finally, it includes a specially edited anthology of medieval texts that are otherwise virtually inaccessible to the general reader, texts such as the complete version of the great alliterative poem Sir Gawayne and the Grene Knight.
