A guide to Old and Middle English literature, its contexts, and its reception. Separate sections address political and social contexts; literary genres and the communities that produced them; reception from the Renaissance to current debates; and several "resources for independent study": datelines, glossary, royal genealogy, suggestions for further reading, and an index. Refers to Chaucer recurrently.
