Medieval Stories and Storytelling. Multimedia and Multi-Temporal perspectives
, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 319 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:19 b/w, 3 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503590509.
Summary The shaping and sharing of narrative has always been key to the negotiation and recreation of reality for individuals and cultural groups. Some stories, indeed, seem to possess a life of their own: claiming a peculiar agency and taking on distinct voices which speak across time and space. How, for example, do objects, manuscripts, and other artefacts communicate alternative or complementary narratives that transcend textual and linguistic boundaries? How are stories created, reshaped, and re-experienced, and how do these shifting contexts and media change meaning? This volume of essays explores these questions about meaning and identity in a range of ways. As a collection, it demonstrates the importance of interdisciplinary and context-focused enquiry when approaching key issues of activity and identity in the medieval period. Ultimately, the process of making meaning through shaping narrative is shown to be as vital and varied in the medieval world as it is today. With a wide range of different disciplinary approaches from leading scholars in their respective fields, chapters include considerations of art, architecture, metalwork, linguistics, and literature. Alongside examinations of medieval cultural productions are explorations of the representation and adaptation of medieval storytelling in graphic novels, classroom teaching, and computer gaming. This volume thus offers an interdisciplinary exploration of how stories from across the medieval world were shaped, transformed, and transmitted.

Late Middle English 'Lucydarye'
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2013 Hardcover. XL 141 p., 156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, Middle French, Middle English, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503540825.
This book offers the reader a textual comparison of the 14th-century French Second Lucidaire and the late Middle English translation Lucydarye. The Lucydarye is a late Middle English manual of popular instruction, largely religious in its orientation, though including lengthy discussions of witchcraft, demonology, and meteorological phenomena. There is a strong interest in pastoral instruction. Set in the form of a dialogue between a magister and his discipulus, it is an over-literal translation of a fourteenth-century French text known as the Second Lucidaire, itself a free adaptation of the Latin Elucidarium, traditionally attributed to Honorius Augustodunensis (Honorius of Autun). The translation is the work of one Andrew Chertsey. The Middle English text, edited here for the first time (from a Wynkyn de Worde print), bears striking similarities to other, popular works of an encyclopaedic nature, notably Sydrak and Bokkus and the Pricke of Conscience. Equally, there are many points in common with the sermon literature of the time. The Lucydarye is printed alongside the French source so as to allow the reader both to appreciate points of obscurity in the text and to observe Chertsey's translation technique. A discussion of the relationship between the Lucydarye and the various versions of the Second Lucidaire throws some light on the complicated textual tradition of the French prints
Dialogues et resistances, Une anthologie de textes anglais de la fin du Moyen Age
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2010 Hardcover. 412 p., 156 x 234 mm, Languages: French, Middle English, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503534770.
Les textes presentes dans ce recueil, traduits pour la premiere fois en francais, ont ete composes entre le milieu du XIVe et du XVe siecle, alors que l?Angleterre connait de fortes transformations dans tous les domaines ? politiques, sociaux, culturels, economiques ? non sans resistances. Poemes, sermons ou encore tracts polemiques, produits dans un contexte de developpement de la 'literacy' (aptitude a lire et a ecrire) et d?une culture ecrite en anglais, s?interrogent, et parfois contestent, ces evolutions. Ces textes suggerent tous qu?en realite, ces transformations fonctionnent ensemble et ils constituent tous des lieux de communication, de dialogue ou de resistance (voire les deux) dans une societe anglaise alors en pleine ebullition.
