This volume brings together a variety of studies devoted to the literate culture of the English later Middle Ages. The studies hover about four foci: normative English polylingualism (across three grammatically distinct languages), the messiness and discontinuities of medieval manuscript production, drawing conclusions about historical audiences/literary communities on the basis of book-evidence, and the Middle English poem Piers Plowman.
