Cambridge Anglo-Norman Texts

Henry John Chaytor

0/5 ( ratings)

First published in 1924, this volume presents critical editions of three short Anglo-Norman texts. As the general editor, O. H. Prior notes in the Preface, 'the works selected are representative of three genres, a purely didactic poem on Geography, a legend of the Virgin, and a biblical subject'. Each selection is taken from among the numerous medieval manuscripts held in the colleges of the University of Cambridge, and the editions are given as exact copies of the manuscripts, with no corrections introduced and any alternative readings or emendations reserved for the notes. The book will continue to be of interest to scholars as a valuable source of minor Anglo-Norman works.
