Media Reviews
A much-needed resource. * JOURNAL OF ENGLISH AND GERMANIC PHILOLOGY *
[A] fine collection of essays from which Middle English prose emerges once again as one of the most stimulating and exciting areas of medieval literature. There can be no doubt that A Companion to Middle English Prose will establish itself in no time as a sine qua non for all who find themselves drawn to this rapidly developing field. * ANGLIA *
This is a book which should have a place on the shelves of every university where Medieval English is taught. * RICARDIAN *
An up-to-date and authoritative guide to the major prose Middle English authors and genres. * MEDIUM AEVUM *
Timely and welcome. [...]the scope, and calibre, of research in the Companion, above all, firmly establishes and surveys the valuable work already carried out. * JOURNAL OF LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS *
