About this product

Product Information

These studies cover a wide chronological range and familiar and unfamiliar texts and topics. The disguised prince is a theme linking several articles, from early Anglo-Norman romances through later English ones, like King Edward and the Shepherd, to a late 16th-century recasting of the Havelok story as a Tudor celebration of Gloriana. 'Translation' in its widest sense, the way romance can reinvent stories for different tastes and periods, is another running theme; the opening introductory article considers the topic of translation theoretically, concerned to stimulate further research on how insular romances were transferred between vernaculars and literary systems, while other essays consider Lovelich's Merlin (a poem translating its Arthurian material to the poet's contemporary London milieu), Chaucer, and Breton lays in England. Contributors: JUDITH WEISS, IVANA DJORDJEVIC, ROSALIND FIELD, MORGAN DICKSON, ELIZABETH ARCHIBALD, AMANDA HOPKINS, ARLYN DIAMOND, PAUL PRICE, W.A. DAVENPORT, RACHEL SNELL, ROGER DALRYMPLE, HELEN COOPER. Selected studies, 'Romance in Medieval England' conference.

Reviews
Demonstrates well the enduring potentiality of romance, by showing how these narratives were rewritten over several centuries, but also how the specific movement of history across their surfaces could create of them very different works. NOTES AND QUERIES A fine volume. The papers are generally of high quality and interest, critically informed but well written and free from jargon. ARTHURIANA

Slow shipping! The book arrived in an opened envelope damaged!! Very poorly packed! The book was new but now damaged. Very Disappointed 😔. They refunded me the price of the book to make it better, but I hope that they would do better at packaging their books in the future to avoid this issue.
