THE MEDIEVAL MANUSCRIPT BOOK

Traditional scholarship on manuscripts has tended to focus on issues


concerning their production and has shown comparatively little
interest in the cultural contexts of the manuscript book. The
Medieval Manuscript Book redresses this by focusing on aspects of
the medieval book in its cultural situations. Written by experts in the
study of the handmade book before print, this volume combines
bibliographical expertise with broader insights into the theory and
praxis of manuscript study in areas from bibliography to social
context, linguistics to location, and archaeology to conservation. The
focus of the contributions ranges widely, from authorship to
miscellaneity, and from vernacularity to digital facsimiles of
manuscripts. Taken as a whole, these essays make the case that to
understand the manuscript book it must be analyzed in all its cultural
complexity, from production to transmission to its continued
adaptation.

MICHAEL JOHNSTON is Associate Professor in the Department of


English at Purdue University and specializes in the circulation of
literary manuscripts in fifteenth-century England. He is the author of
Romance and the Gentry in Late Medieval England (2014) and the
co-editor, with Susanna Fein, of Robert Thornton and His Books:
New Essays on the Lincoln and London Manuscripts (2014).

MICHAEL VAN DUSSEN is Associate Professor in the Department of


English at McGill University and specializes in communication before
print in the Latin West, with emphasis on England’s relations with
Central Europe. He is the author of From England to Bohemia:
Heresy and Communication in the Later Middle Ages (Cambridge,
2012) and the co-editor, with Pavel Soukup, of Religious Controversy
in Europe, 1378–1536: Textual Transmission and Networks of
Readership (2013).

This series of critical books seeks to cover the whole area of


literature written in the major medieval languages – the main
European vernaculars, and medieval Latin and Greek – during the
period c.1100–1500. Its chief aim is to publish and stimulate fresh
scholarship and criticism on medieval literature, special emphasis
being placed on understanding major works of poetry, prose, and
drama in relation to the contemporary culture and learning that
fostered them.
