Traumas of 1066 in the Literatures of England, Normandy, and Scandinavia
, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 292 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:2 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503607870.
Summary 1066 is one of the most well-known dates in English history: but how far do we understand the mental and emotional lives of those who experienced it? In just over a month, England was rocked by two separate invasions, multiple pitched battles, and the deaths of thousands. The repercussions of these traumatic events would echo through the history and literature of northern Europe for centuries to come. Drawing on studies of trauma and cultural memory, this book examines the cultural repercussions of the year 1066 in medieval England, Normandy, and Scandinavia. It explores how writers in all three regions celebrated their common heritage and mourned the wars that brought them into conflict. Bringing together texts from an array of languages, genres, and cultural traditions, this study examines the strategies medieval authors employed to work through the traumas of 1066, narrating its events and experiences in different forms. It explores the ways in which history and memory interacted through multiple generations of writers and readers, and reveals how the field of trauma studies can help us better understand the mental and emotional lives of medieval people.

Two Middle English Translations of Friar Laurent's 'Somme le roi': critical edition
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2010 Hardcover. XXXII 174 p., 156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, Middle English, Old French, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503534695.
This is the first volume of a two-volume project whose aim is to publish all the known Middle English manuscript translations of the French Somme le roi, a thirteenth-century manual of religious instruction offering teaching on the Decalogue, the seven deadly sins and their remedies, compiled by the Dominican friar Laurent of Orleans. The project extends and deepens our knowledge of the influence of this popular French text, known today only from the versions entitled The Ayenbite of Inwit and The Book of Vices and Virtues, published in 1866 and 1942, respectively. This volume presents the versions extant in BL MSS Royal 18. A. x and Add. 37677; the second will cover the versions in Cambridge, Corpus Christi College, MS 494, Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Ashmole 1286, and Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS e Musaeo 23. The texts of both volumes have been prepared with the help of the recently-published edition of the French text (2008), a circumstance from which the earlier English editions were unable to benefit. It is likely that the versions edited here for the first time will make a considerable contribution to our understanding of the processes of textual transmission and to that of translation itself in English literary circles of the fifteenth century.

Rene d'Anjou, ecrivain et mecene (1409-1480)
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2011 Hardcover. 308 p., 30 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm, Languages: French, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503533506.
A l?occasion du 6e centenaire de la naissance de Rene, duc d?Anjou et comte de Provence, ce volume pluridisciplinaire propose des perspectives nouvelles sur l?action d?un prince qui, malgre ses deboires politiques, fut un ecrivain subtil et un mecene curieux de tous les arts. Sont abordes l??uvre litteraire de Rene d?Anjou (Livre du C?ur d?amour epris, Mortifiement de vaine plaisance, Traite et devis de la forme d?un tournoi), mais aussi sa bibliotheque, sa politique culturelle, les ecrivains et artistes a son service, les spectacles curiaux, reflet de gouts litteraires et de l?imaginaire de la fin du Moyen Age. La personnalite du prince apparait particulierement riche de sens, en ce qu?il se situe au carrefour de la feodalite (dont il fut l?un des derniers grands representants, a une epoque ou s?affirmait le pouvoir royal) et de l?humanisme (dont Rene eut un avant-gout par les liens qui l?attachaient a l?Italie).
