The medieval period was one of extraordinary literary

achievement sustained over centuries of great change, anchored by

the Norman invasion and its aftermath, the re-emergence of English

as the nation"s leading literary language in the fourteenth century

and the advent of print in the fifteenth. This Companion spans four

full centuries to survey this most formative and turbulent era in

the history of literature in English. Exploring the period"s key

authors - Chaucer, Langland, the Gawain-Poet, Margery Kempe, among

many - and genres - plays, romances, poems and epics - the book

offers an overview of the riches of medieval writing. The essays

map out the flourishing field of medieval literary studies and

point towards new directions and approaches. Designed to be

accessible to students, the book also features a chronology and

guide to further reading.
