Rezension

this anthology is an ideal core textbook for an undergraduate course on the literature of England in the three centuries after the Norman Conquest ... The real triumph of this volume is that it manages to present 'difficult' material in a way that is clear and inviting but not oversimplified ... In the variety, quality, and interest of its contents, this anthology constitutes a very compelling argument for the study of English literature from the Conquest to the Plague. Aisling Byrne, The Cambridge Quarterly
