内容説明

This collection of new essays, substantial expansions and elaborations of papers read at the 1987 York Manuscripts Conference, focuses on the complex relationship between Latin and vernacular in late-medieval texts and manuscripts. It includes examinations of many facets of bilingual literary culture, covering texts which incorporate both Latin and English materials, texts which are extant in both Latin and English versions, and texts which illustrate theproblems and implications of translating Latin into English. Attention is paid to the ways in which the supposed difference in status of these two languages is reflected in literary and codicological practice. There are also discussions of the production of both Latin and vernacular manuscripts in the province of York during the late 14th and 15th centuries, and of the European dissemination of some spiritual writings in Latin. There is much to stimulate the critic as well as the codicologist, and those with broad interests in late-medieval literary culture as well as specialists inmedieval literature and languages.
