‎Essays in Manuscript Geography, Vernacular Manuscripts of the English West Midlands from the Conquest to the Sixteenth Century,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2007 Hardback, XII+296 p., 16 b/w ill., 1 b/w line art, 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503516950.‎

‎The medieval English West Midlands has long been associated with the production of vernacular texts, in Old and Middle English, and with the making of several famous manuscripts. The aim of this volume is to re-think assumptions about medieval literature and the region in the light of new research in medieval book history. A series of specially commissioned essays in 'manuscript geography' examines the making and use of texts and books in relation to cultural networks in the region and beyond. Included are case studies of manuscripts of Worcester and the Worcester diocese from the eleventh to the thirteenth centuries; investigations of manuscript production in fourteenth-century Shropshire and its wider regional links; and essays on textual cultures in Warwickshire from the activities of the aristocrats and gentry of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries to the projects of later antiquarians. Essays in the final section of the volume reflect on the possibilities of large-scale, corpus-based research on medieval manuscript books. Collectively the essays identify and explore some of the investments of traditional regionalist accounts of vernacular literary culture and model new theoretical and methodological approaches. Languages : English.‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2013 Hardcover. XL 334 p., 62 b/w ill. 41 colour ill., 2 b/w tables, 156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, Latin, French, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503530468.‎

‎The Vernon Manuscript, the largest and arguably the most important Middle English anthology, is examined in its entirety in this ground-breaking, interdisciplinary study. This volume addresses important questions in late medieval book production and the history of the medieval book through original and substantial studies of one of the most remarkable surviving examples. The Vernon Manuscript, carefully copied and lavishly decorated around 1390-1400 for pious users, is famous as the largest and arguably the most important Middle English anthology. Its sheer size and conservation concerns mean that up to now it has been little studied as a book. The essays in this volume exploit for the first time the mass of new data generated by the Vernon Manuscript Project. Specialists in art history, bibliography, codicology, historical linguistics, and palaeography have been commissioned to interrogate this material from their various disciplinary perspectives. The result is a ground-breaking interdisciplinary volume which sheds new light on an iconic medieval book and on a transitional period of innovation and experimentation in vernacular book production.‎

‎Showing Status, Representation of Social Positions in the Late Middle Ages,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1999 Hardback, X+492 pages ., 160 x 240 mm. *new ISBN 9782503507668.‎

‎This publication brings together multi-disciplinary perspectives on representations of social difference in the Low Countries during a time of dynamic social change. How did people in the late medieval period perceive and express social status? This volume brings together multi-disciplinary perspectives on representations of social difference in the Low Countries during a time of dynamic social change. The premise of the volume is that medieval social change may only be fully understood if hierarchies of wealth and power are examined alongside literary and artistic sources. Medieval texts and material culture expressed social standing and gave meaning to the experience of social change. The aim of the study is to recognise and translate the language of symbols used to encode and display status in the late Middle Ages. Languages : English.‎
