- Christa Jansohn and Bodo Plachta, eds. Varianten - Variants - Variantes. (Tubingen: Max Niemeyer, 2005), pp. 79-90.
- Description
- Edwards comments on the conceptualizations and uses of variants in textual studies of CT and "Piers Plowman," particularly those by Manly and Rickert and by Kane and Donaldson, arguing that some manuscripts are better regarded as separate versions of texts than as sources of individual variants. Edwards considers in this light an excerpted version of the GP description of the Parson found in British Library MS Additional 10340.
