Hardback. Condizione: New. Essays bringing out the richness and vibrancy of pre-modern textual culture in all its variety.Linne R. Mooney, Emeritus Professor of Palaeography at the University of York, has significantly advanced the study of later medieval English book production, particularly our knowledge of individual scribes; this collection honours her distinguished scholarship and responds to her wide-ranging research on Middle English manuscripts and texts. The thirteen essays brought together here take a variety of approaches - palaeographical, codicological, dialectal, textual, art historical - to the study of the English medieval book and to the varied environments (professional, administrative, mercantile, ecclesiastical) where manuscripts were produced and used during the period 1300-1550. Acknowledging that books and readers are no respecters of borders, this collection's geographical scope extends beyond England in the east to Ghent and Flanders, and in the west to Waterford and the Dublin Pale. Contributors explore manuscripts containing works by key writers, including Geoffrey Chaucer, John Gower, John Wyclif, and Walter Hilton. Major texts whose manuscript traditions are scrutinized include Speculum Vitae, the Scale of Perfection, the Canterbury Tales, and Confessio Amantis, along with a wide range of shorter works such as lyric poems, devotional texts, and historical chronicles. London book-making activities and the scribal cultures of other cities and monastic centres all receive attention, as does the book production of personal miscellanies. By considering both literary texts and the letters, charters, and writs that medieval scribes produced, in Latin and Anglo-French as well as English, this collection celebrates Professor Mooney's influence on the field and presents a holistic sense of England's pre-modern textual culture.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Provides a description of every extant manuscript and pre-1500 edition of Chaucer's best-known, yet unfinished work.Nearly a century has passed since the first detailed descriptions of all the known manuscripts of the Canterbury Tales were published. Our better understanding of the processes of fifteenth-century book production, along with the development of new tools and methodologies, today allows for much more precise and accurate descriptions. This Catalogue provides accounts of the manuscripts and pre-1500 editions of Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales based on examinations of all the manuscripts (often multiple examinations) and almost all the known copies of the incunable editions. This includes 54 complete or once complete manuscripts; 29 manuscripts containing extracts or that are incomplete for other reasons; and four pre-1500 printed editions surviving in multiple copies. Each description is self-contained, and includes sections on contents, tale-order, progress of copying, materials, collation, format, hands (or printer's type for the incunables), decoration, date, dialect/spellings, and provenance. The front-matter provides details of tale-order types, textual relationships, sigla, abbreviations, and notational conventions referred to and employed in the individual descriptions. These manuscripts were produced for a wide variety of consumers, which is reflected in the varying qualities of parchment, or paper, or combinations of paper and parchment on which they are copied. Some are sumptuously illuminated, while many are remarkably plain for a text whose stature we today regard so highly. Some contain only the Canterbury Tales; in others, it can be difficult to find any Chaucer at all. In a few, the portions of the Canterbury Tales they contain were copied from an early printed edition. While these incunable editions came off the press as more-or-less identical copies, some were elaborately decorated for purchasers, others received minimal "finishing," and many none at all. This Catalogue presents the stories - to the extent we have been able to reconstruct them - of these surviving witnesses to the fifteenth-century dissemination of Chaucer's best-known yet unfinished work.…
