Makers and Users of Medieval Books: Essays in Honour of A.S.G. Edwards Carol M Meale

Marc Notes: A. S. G. Edwards: List of publications (pages 224-236).; Includes bibliographical references and indexes. Review Quotes: It is precisely this sort of research that can offer clinching evidence for arguments about premodern books and the texts contained in them. It is vital that there remains a publishing space for this level of evidence. THE MEDIEVAL REVIEWPublisher Marketing: Late medieval manuscripts and early modern print history form the focus of this volume. It includes new work on the compilation of some important medieval manuscript miscellanies and major studies of merchant patronage and of a newly revealed woman patron, alongside explorations of medieval texts and the post-medieval reception history of Langland, Chaucer and Nicholas Love. It thus pays a fitting tribute to the career of Professor A. S. G. Edwards, highlighting his scholarly interests and demonstrating the influence of his achievements. Carol M.
